A statue of the saga figure 'Karel De Blauwer' refers to an activity that is very typical of a border village, namely smuggling or 'blueing'. 'The poor seasonal workers with their blue overalls who went to pull flax, harvest grain and pick hops in the summer months were looking for extra income during the winter months. Smuggling tobacco wrapped in butter paper across the French border gave them the chance to earn some extra money during the cold winter nights.
