The Caillou farm, south of the battlefield, at Vieux-Genappe, was Napoleon's last headquarters: here he spent the night of 17 to 18 June 1815 and prepared the attack. Today it is a small museum with mementoes of the emperor and his staff.
How to visit
It is included in the Pass 1815 along with the Wellington Museum, for €30 for adults and €16.50 for ages 10 to 17, and is about 4 km from the Memorial: you need a car or taxi.
