Tervuren: Musée Royal de l'Afrique Centrale Tervuren: Musée Royal de l'Afrique Centrale No Data

Description


Once a museum dedicated to showing how nice Leopold I and the Belgium's had been to the peoples of their former colonies (today the DR Congo, Rwanda and Burundi), today the museum now shows a more realistic view of the way the colonies were run, happily using words like Genocide, plunder and looting to describe how the artefacts made it back to Belgium.
