The Church in Plancenoit

Plancenoit (Walloon: Planchenois) is a Belgian village and district of the municipality of Lasne, Wallonia in the province of Walloon Brabant.

The village was a key strategic point during the Battle of Waterloo as it was the main focal point of the Prussians' successful flank attack on Napoleon's army.

In June every year, the village plays host to an annual re-enactment of the battle. A monument in the village commemorates the Prussian troops who died in the battle.
