Abele (village)

Abele (also spelled Abeele) is a small village or hamlet in the city of Poperinge, in the Belgian province of West Flanders.

The church of Abele is located on French territory, but the services are organized by the Roman Catholic Diocese of Bruges.

The Kerkfabriek [nl] of Watou and the local authorities of Boeschepe are responsible for its maintenance.

The old Belgian customs office was renovated and now serves as a retro-café with a small exhibition.

Abeele Aerodrome Military Commonwealth War Graves Commission Cemetery is outside the village, on the site of a World War I military airfield.
