Veurne (Dutch pronunciation: [ˈvøːrnə] ⓘ; French: Furnes, pronounced [fyʁn]) is a city and municipality in the Belgian province of West Flanders.

As most of the "Westhoek" (the Western part of the county of Flanders), the city and the neighbourghood strongly recessed during the economic and religious problems around 1566–1583.

In 1920, the French President, Raymond Poincaré, came to Veurne to award the city the Croix de guerre with palm.

Veurne suffered some damage during World War II, mainly from Allied bombing but also from the strategic flooding that engulfed the whole area.

Today, the city is a regional centre, which gives commercial, medical, and educational services to the surrounding communities while enjoying increasing tourist attention.

This unique event includes cross-carrying, hooded penitents and other groups of participants who recreate the Passion of Jesus.

The others are small rural villages: Avekapelle, Booitshoeke, Bulskamp, De Moeren, Eggewaartskapelle, Houtem, Steenkerke, Vinkem, Wulveringem and Zoutenaaie.
