A remarkable Lego version of the famous First World War memorial at Ypres has been created by a history buff.<br />
<br />
The scale model of the Menin Gate was built using 54,000 Lego bricks - the same number of soldiers killed at Ypres with no known grave.<br />
<br />
The unique tribute also contains 250 Lego figures who are depicted attending a Last Post ceremony beneath the iconic arch.<br />
<br />
The incredibly detailed model was produced by Belgian Jan Vandan Berghe who spent six months building it.
