The last authentic witness to the Battle of Waterloo . The Duke of Wellington used to say that the success of the battle turned upon the closing of the gates at Hougoumont.

Fully restored for the 200th anniversary of the battle of Waterloo . On 17 June 2015, Charles, Prince of Wales, unveiled a memorial dedicated to the British soldiers who fought in the battle.

Evocative site for Waterloo buffs. Shuttle from memorial on half hour in dinner but stops a bit away from the farm . Very kind bus driver waited for us on way back.

Excellent museum. Tells the story of the French Revolution and Napoleon as well as the battle. Don’t miss the 4D movie. Almost as realistic as being in the middle of the battle. - Gerry Waldron
