It was a great experience; the phones did not work as was suggested though; their wifi connection to our phones did not let us through, so we just read about the battle and watched a very interesting film about it. It was good recreational activity climbing to the top if the monument hill. The view was nice.

Definitely worth a visit!!! Clean and spacious underground museum with well-designed and detailed exhibits, in 4 languages (English/French/Dutch/German). Cool 4D film where you are immersed in the intense battle of Waterloo, and climb up the Lion's Hill is really really fantastic 😍 I went on a sunny day in February, which I think is neither too hot nor too cold and perfect for visiting this museum, with both in- and outdoors. Looking forward to bringing more people so I can revisit it myself :)

The museum is quite big and has a lot of different things about the battle. Focused on Napoleon. Dutch/Flemisch translations of French text are very poor. Which is odd as it is in Belgium. There are a lot of things to see, to read every signs takes too long. The guide is also focused on reading so you don't save much time. Spent 3 yours in the musuem and the grounds

Wonderful and interesting place, with all information you need to know about the Battle of Waterloo. Besides this, there iscall the infrastructure necessary of restrooms and places to eat and drink something. It's also easy to park.

Best to go in summer as it's very windy and cold in winter and not enjoyable. To go up the little hill ticket needed which includes a museum as well. There are 2 types of tickets; one museum only and the other museum and the hill as well. I didn't dare to walk in the cold for 3 hours so these pictures are of the souvenir shop only.

Visited on a day trip from Paris and I’m very glad I did. What an incredible experience. You can tell they’ve put a lot of effort into the entire grounds. A 4D movie, a very helpful and straightforward timeline detailing the events after the battle. A must visit in Europe!

Very cool museum describing in detail pretty much minute by minute the whole battle from start to finish and what led up to it and it's aftermath. Great displays of uniforms and weapons. Must visit for anyone who loves history.

The battlefield is kind of a basic farm field now, but the history of the place is just intoxicating. All the pivotal locations can be seen from the Lion Monument. Beware it is a steep climb of around 250 steps to the top. The museum is new and was a good visit. They had a cannon exhibit going on and several reenactments planned. Really a good place to visit and spend a few hours or make a day of it and take in the other museums nearby.
