The reconstructed shelter along the Frontzate in Ramskapelle is a remnant from the First World War. The Frontzate, which is now a cycle path over the old railway bed from Nieuwpoort to Diksmuide, formed the Belgian line during the war by flooding the IJzer plain.
The shelter in Ramskapelle was one of these constructions on that line and can be recognised by the bas-relief of a cross on the back of the building.
