Designed by Edouard Vereycken, the memorial stands in front of the Palais de justice de Bruxelles and across the Place Poelaert from the Anglo-Belgian War Memorial. The memorial rests on a raised platform that overlooks the city centre of Brussels. Translated in English the inscription reads: "To the infantrymen who died for their country"
