Women and renovating

6 women and renovations

The Yper Museum was once home to Ypres Town Hall. Desks, meeting rooms and filing cabinets were converted into a multimedia museum. We would be lying if we said that process did not involve blood, sweat and tears. Various companies and contractors stripped the interior, while the exterior remained intact.

And as if that weren't enough, the workers were supervised by six women. They certainly held their own, with a clear vision and knowledge of the business.
