The Wellington Museum in the Belgian town of Waterloo is a former Bodenghien Inn. Its construction dates from 1705.

In 1815, when it was a coaching inn, it was chosen by the Duke of Wellington as the headquarters for himself and his staff.

Wellington, commander-in-chief of the allied armies in 1815, stayed here on the nights of 17th & 18th June 1815.
