Fodor's Review:

From the prevalence of souvenirs and images of Napoléon, you might think that the battle was won by the French. In fact, there were Belgian soldiers fighting on both sides. Napoléon's headquarters during his last days as emperor were in what is now the small Musée du Caillou in Genappe, south of the battlefield. It contains the room where he spent the night before the battle, his personal effects, and objects found in the field.

  • Cost: EUR 4
