Heritage maps
Since the beginning of 2019, LECA, Heemkunde Vlaanderen and the subsidized activities of Familiekunde Vlaanderen have together formed the integrated heritage organization Histories. Histories is the point of contact for anyone with a passion and interest in genealogy, local heritage, local history, everyday culture and metal detection, and has been commissioned by the government to meet the needs of heritage volunteers.
