Luminopolis
What is light? How does it affect our day-to-day? How does it influence life? In this totally original game-based exhibition, light is explored from every angle – physical, biological, technical and sociological.
LUMINOPOLIS is an original and captivating concept, a race against the clock with a choice of 10, 14 or 18 puzzles to solve as a team. Equipped with a tablet to activate the game stations, get hints and enter your answers. A great way to explore the vast theme of light through play.
Designed for teenagers, (young) adults and children over the age of six (starting the 4th grade for school visits).

Squarely Furry
Little Furry wakes up every morning and hurries to the toilet which is far too big for him. He then hurriedly tucks into his breakfast, gives his mummy a kiss, and then briskly walks to school. To school? There is nothing more uncertain, as adventure awaits him on the corner of the street.
Little Furry wakes up every morning and hurries to the toilet which is far too big for him. He then hurriedly tucks into his breakfast, gives his mummy a kiss, and then briskly walks to school. To school? There is nothing more uncertain, as adventure awaits him on the corner of the street.
This unchanging pattern, with different variations each time, is the invention of comic artist Pierre Bailly and scriptwriter Céline Fraipont, who have created a completely wordless comic book accessible to children from the age of 3.
Highly colourful, this playful exhibition invites children to climb, jump, hide and crawl, from one panel to the next, immersing themselves in a different adventure each time, just like Little Furry.

Halle Gate
Although thousands of people pass every day close to this remaining part of the second surrounding wall of Brussels, along the "petite ceinture" between the Place Louise and the Midi Station, very few of them are conscious of its eventful history. This fairytale monument, more than 600 years old is in fact the most remarkable witness of the City's medieval past.
Open on Mondays! The Halle Gate houses now a permanent presentation dedicated to the medieval City of Brussels. Climb the Halle Gate’s 169 steps and enjoy Brussels’ most stunning panoramic view. Virtual binoculars let you see the city as master painter Pieter Bruegel the Elder would have seen it. It’s a breathtaking plunge back into the 16th century!
For families : After the museum, children can have a great time in the most beautiful outdoor playground of Brussels, located only 100 meters from the museum. Adventure assured in this castle and medieval village with accompanying sandbox.

Belgian Museum of Freemasonry
Discover the history of freemasonry in Belgium in an beautiful historical setting. Permanent and temporary exhibitions, guided tours of the museum, masonic temples and the city, cultural activities, concerts and more! More info and bookings via www.mbfm.be
Although freemasonry is a community for whom discretion is of the highest concern, the Belgian museum of freemasonry wants to invite and inform visitors in a spirit of openness. The goal of the thematic and didactic approach that marks the permanent exhibition is twofold. On one hand it wants to inform the visitor about the history of freemasonry in Belgium. On the other hand it is an invitation to reflect on the human condition and one’s own life.
The permanent exhibition, located in a historic neoclassical building (Hôtel Dewez), shows a series of masonic artworks, ritual objects, books and documents dating from the 18th century to present day. These historical objects are the silent witnesses of the origins, historic evolution, the workings and ideas behind freemasonry.

Guided visits for schools
Similar service to that offered to the general public, but tailor made for the needs and interests of primary and secondary school students. To enhance the understanding of European history in all its complexity, the tour explores historical memories and experiences, both different and common, of the peoples of Europe and delves into how these relate to the present.
Guided visits for primary and secondary schools will be available from 28 March 2022 onwards.
Guided visits for school groups focus on certain aspects of the permanent or temporary exhibition.
Please note that guided visits and workshops can be offered in French, English, Dutch or German.
The minimum time to book in advance is four weeks for a guided visit.
Guided groups at the HEH may have no more than thirty students, depending on availability, with one chaperone required for every fifteen students.
Workshop: The guided visit for school groups is combined with a workshop based on the handling collection of the House of European History. History comes alive when we can touch it, hear it, even smell it. This is exactly what we do with our hands-on workshops. The House of European History has an extensive handling collection that we make available to your students so that they can examine and explore history through primary and secondary source material including objects, photographs, textual materials all outside of the display cases.
For further advice on making the most of your visit, please read the document "Practical information for groups".
