This archive will teach you more about the family VROMANT, originating from
Belgium. All the places mentioned on this page are in the neighborhood of Kortrijk, which is a small city of 50,000
inhabitants (+ 20,000 in the suburbs) in West-Flanders (and where the US
cyclist Greg Lemond lived during his European bicycling days). The cities of Zwevegem (or Sweveghem in the
old spelling) and Deerlijk can also be
found on the Internet. Heestert and Sint-Denijs are villages which are now part
of Zwevegem.
