Eeklo (Dutch pronunciation: [ˈeːkloː] ⓘ) is a Belgian municipality in the Flemish province of East Flanders. The municipality comprises only the city of Eeklo proper. The name Eeklo comes from the contraction of eke and lo, two Old German words meaning 'oak' and 'sparse woods' (compare English Oakley).
