Napoleon's last HQ transformed into a museum, presenting military objects, located a few kilometers from the Hameau du Lion

Located a few kilometres from the Lion Hamlet, the Caillou farm - where Napoleon and his staff spent the night of 17 to 18 June 1815 - has also been transformed into a museum. It was here that the Emperor drew up his battle plans. Napoleon's camp bed, his death mask, the skeleton of a French hussar, slide shows of the 1815 campaign and a multitude of other military objects can be seen here, among other things. On the weekend closest to 18 June, a large Napoleonic bivouac is organised.

incontournable, émouvant
C'est dans cette fermette aménagée pour les circonstances que Napoléon a passé sa dernière nuit d'homme libre avant le désastre du lendemain. Explications intéressantes car documentées. Le lit pliable - inventé par un français à la demande de l'Empereur est authentique. Dans la cour un ossuaire sordide présente un imbroglio de crâne et de fémurs authentique eux aussi. Dur, dur !! On est ému et content car c'est la dernière nuit d'homme libre du massacreur de la jeunesse européenne !
