Royal Museum of Military History in Brussels
About
The Royal Museum of Military History occupies the left wing of the famous Triumphal Arch, which is located near the well-known Parc du Cinquantenaire. The museum has changed its location several times before settling here, and has gained immense popularity among tourists.
The Royal Museum is divided into numerous large halls, each dedicated to a specific theme. Its collection comprises 2,000 items, including a significant amount of weaponry, equipment, and even machinery. It's hard to believe, but among the museum's "assortment" are items that have survived from the fifteenth century and have lived through more than one war.

Loved this museum. 100% recommended if you are looking for old aircraft/fighter jets, tanks, and war equipment in general from several centuries.

Très beau musée, si vous aimez l'histoire des guerres, vous êtes au bon endroit. Sur la guerre 39/45 beaucoup de détails sur l'armée allemande.

Très beau musée, si on aime cela c est l endroit idéal pour passer quelques heures
