EDITORS COMMENTS
Chateau d'Hougoumont: A Historic Symbol of the Battle of Waterloo, Belgium Nestled at the foot of an escarpment in Braine-l'Alleud, near Waterloo, Belgium, stands the majestic Chateau d'Hougoumont. This large farmhouse, dating back to the 15th century, holds a significant place in European history as the site of one of the most pivotal battles in the modern era - the Battle of Waterloo, fought on June 18, 1815. The escarpment, where the chateau is situated, marked the boundary between the British and allied forces, led by the Duke of Wellington, and the French army under Napoleon Bonaparte. The strategic location of the chateau made it a crucial objective for both sides. The entrance to the chateau, as depicted in this circa 1905 photograph, reveals the grandeur of the estate. The road leading up to the gateway is flanked by trees, providing a picturesque scene of tranquility that belies the tumultuous history of the place. The gatehouse, with its arched entrance and intricate stonework, stands proudly as a testament to the past. The Battle of Waterloo, which took place nearby, resulted in a decisive victory for the allied forces, marking the end of Napoleon's reign as the Emperor of the French. The chateau, though damaged during the battle, survived and continues to be a popular tourist destination and a reminder of the rich history of Belgium and Europe.
