Tervuren’s giant elephant statue to be restored to its former glory | VRT NWS: news

The large statue outside the Africa Museum in the Flemish Brabant municipality of Tervuren is to be restored. The statute in reinforced concrete was originally made for the World Exhibition in Brussels, 87 years ago in 1935. It was moved to Tervuren in 1938. Later this month scaffolding will be erected around the statue ahead of the restoration work that will get under way next year.
