A museum of Belgian history housed in a neoclassical mansion beside the royal palace. It presents the story of the country from its independence in 1830 to the present through objects, images and personal accounts. Themes such as democracy, migration, language and prosperity structure the displays rather than a strict chronology. The building connects to the archaeological remains of the former Coudenberg palace beneath the square. The museum offers an accessible introduction to how modern Belgium took shape.
