Het Poolse Kruis

Het Poolse Kruis is a small farm campsite (boerderij-camping) located near Axel in Zeeuws-Vlaanderen, close to the Belgian border.

With around 16 pitches, it offers a quiet, intimate setting amid a varied landscape of dikes, farmland, meadows, forests, and creeks typical of the region.

The campsite takes its name from a nearby war memorial commemorating 25 Polish soldiers of the 1st Armored Division who fell during the liberation of Axel in September 1944.

The monument, designed by Polish veterans, stands beside the Zijkanaal naar Hulst and was unveiled on 19 September 1945. The surrounding area is well suited to cycling, with 22 signposted routes spanning Zeeuws-Vlaanderen and the Belgian Flemish provinces.

The well-preserved fortified town of Hulst and the town of Axel are both within cycling distance.
