A thorough tour; Those look like some very nice dioramas - the huge field overview at the Waterloo Museum and some detailed buildings and close-up action at Ligny

Thank you for sharing. I have been there twice, and only to the main battlefield.

This is on my list of places to visit with Verdun and the Some and Bastogne and the Magonet line

Cheers for taking the time to make this video! I took the missus on the back of my motorbike to the battlefield 20years ago! (Who said romance is dead??😂) I would love to go back and spend a bit more time there! All the best!

The ossuary contains the remains of maybe 10 people. More than 27K tons of human/animal bones from Napoleonic battlefields were imported through the port of Hull to be processed into fertilizer. The young soldiers still had good teeth and these were used in dentures, called "Waterloo teeth". The British were called the vampires of Europe when all this happened.

Thanks for doing this video Alex. There is so much history over there that most of us on the other side of the pond will never get to see. I really appreciate your taking the time to chronicle your visit to that awesome battlefield.

Enjoyable, informative video. Was at Waterloo in 1977 during a school trip. Only got to see the Panorama and climb the mound. There was a French 8pdr outside the visitor centre. At that time we were playing Napoleonic battles on my mate's sitting room floor, using his variant of Charge! and lots of Airfix figures. Always promised myself I would go back. Unfulfilled, so far!

This was great! Thanks for sharing, Alex! And I had no idea you played the drum (if that is a drum!)! 😛

Thank you. When I visited in 1997, we didn’t see as much in depth. This is invaluable to me. Much appreciated

Great video. Thanks. I am always suprised when I see the battlefield how gentle the slopes are.

The allied side was a lot steeper but most of the earth was removed for the Lion Mound. There was a good documentary on the subject that you can probably find on KZfaq .
