The Duke of Wellington wrote and signed his victory report from this inn, in Waterloo, hence the name of the battle. The fight itself took place a little further on. These former headquarters are now a museum retracing the European political background before and after the fight through engravings, historical weapons and a rich collection of documents.
A rich historical collection
Walking through the museum, you will see the rooms where Wellington and his aide-de-camp settled down to prepare for the last battle. Visitors can also admire an exceptional selection of weapons, a French cannon, the Duke's cape and authentic maps and letters from both French and British armies.
Families
2021 marks the bicentenary of the death of the emperor. The Wellington Museum decided to invite a younger public to learn about this fascinating historical character and the famous battle he took part in by... recreating the scenes with Playmobil® figurines! Quite fascinating to see, even if you are not a child anymore.
