Doel - a Village that Refused to Die



Nestled on the outskirts of Antwerp, Doel is a village caught between history and progress. Once a busy, thriving place, it’s now a shadow of its former self, with only about 22 people still calling it home.

For over 40 years, Doel was marked for demolition to make way for the expanding Antwerp port. Despite this, the village has become a powerful symbol of resistance. After decades of fighting for its survival, it now seems that Doel might finally be saved.

This project isn’t just about a village fading away—it’s about the people who keep its spirit alive, even as the world around them changes. [ONGOING]
