The City of Dinant reports that a large tree fell on Tuesday, October 27, 2026, in the upper right section of the F statistique cemetery, causing damage to several funerary monuments and the enclosure wall.

Municipal workers intervened promptly to clear the trunk and secure the area. A team will return later to remove the remaining branches.
The municipality invites families with relatives buried in the F statistique cemetery to check the condition of their burial sites during their next visit, as the municipal services do not have contact details for all concerned families.
If damage is observed on a family's funerary monument, please contact the cemetery service of the City of Dinant at 082/404.816 or by email at [service.cimetieres@dinant.be].
The City of Dinant thanks citizens for their understanding and the municipal workers for their intervention.
