Oostkamp

The Canadian 4th Armoured Division liberated the village on 8 September 1944 (World War II) during the Battle of Moerbrugge. A monument was erected by the Ghent-Bruges Canal to honour the 53 Canadian casualties.

With the Belgian Unity Law the four villages of Oostkamp proper, Hertsberge, Ruddervoorde and Waardamme became the municipality of Greater Oostkamp.

OostCampus, City hall and Civic Centre (Siemenslaan 8, 8020 Oostkamp)

In 2012, all the different municipal services which had been accommodated over the years in a scattered collection of facilities, moved to a new complex: 'OostCampus'. On March 9, 2017, the mayor and the chairman of the Social Services (OCMW) also moved from their former site in 'Beukenpark' to OostCampus, which is now effectively the City Hall and Civic Centre of Oostkamp.

The building, designed by Spanish architect Carlos Arroyo, has received important awards, such as:

• Gold Prijs Bouwmeester 2013 [2] awarded by the Government of Flanders, in the category 'Renovation'.
• Archdaily's 65 best new buildings in the world 2012[3]
• Holcim Silver Award for Sustainable Construction[4] in Europe 2011
• It was featured in the 14th edition of the Venice Biennale of Architecture 2012[5]

Kasteel De Cellen

Kasteel Kevergem

Kasteel Pecsteen in Ruddervoorde

Oostkamp has about twenty outstanding examples of Kasteel (plural kastelen), meaning castles, châteaux and mansions. These were erected as 'countryside retreats' of 'leisure houses' by the nobles and merchants of the area, many of them with permanent abodes in nearby Bruges. Most kastelen are private property and therefore not to be visited. Many are visible from the public road.[6]
