Tues-Sun 9am-noon & 1-4.30pm; free . In the north wing of Le Cinquantenaire, on the other side of the triumphal arch from the other two museums, the Musee Royal de l'Armee et d'Histoire militaire displays collections tracing the history of the Belgian army from independence to the present day by means of weapons, uniforms and paintings. There are also modest sections dealing with "Belgian" regiments in the Austrian and Napoleonic armies, and, more interestingly, the volunteers who formed the nucleus of the 1830 revolution. Most spectacular are the galleries devoted to armoured cars, artillery and military aircraft, though it's far from required viewing. One surprise is that from the top floor you can get out onto the triumphal arch and enjoy extensive views over the city.
