Royal Museum of the Armed Forces and of Military History and its collection

Royal Museum of the Armed Forces and of Military History
Source

The Royal Museum of the Army and Military History is dedicated to ten centuries of military history. The common thread is the history of Belgium from the 18th century through World War II, but other countries are also featured. The collection includes uniforms, weapons, flags, pennants and badges of honor, instruments, paintings, sculptures and vehicles and aircraft. From battering ram to F-16, from chain mail to armored vehicle, from precious sword and crossbow to fearsome tank.
