Back_For_More Posted June 4, 2023 Share Posted June 4, 2023 The beloved autoworld.... They have regular changes in special displays - usually anniversaries of a model or maker. Top quality motors in there and it's a partially working museum as they do a lot of maintenance and restoration around the back and sometimes in the display garage in the main hall..... Same with the air museum opposite - hope you had time to get in there too.... Cafe is fantastic and the resto work going on is a joy to behold. Pity I'm not there fella - next weekend - typically eddyramrod 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Back_For_More Posted June 4, 2023 Share Posted June 4, 2023 OK - so as you enter the park from Merode..... The main arch is central... Left side - Autoworld.... Fantastic collection and ever changing displays with almost every Belgian club and collector donating/loaning vehicles on a rotation. Right side - War and Air Museum. Going over the civil war of Belgium and the World Wars.... A collection of tanks in the main courtyard. End main massive hall is filled with single seater aircraft, warbirds, special forces gear, arctic expedition stuff, helicopters and fighter jets etc.... A lot to take in. Both sides have working sections of their main areas that are regularly occupied with ongoing restoration projects. The volunteers at both do a cracking job aamd are extremely helpful amd friendly. Definitely worth a day and only 70m apart so not exactly a massive walk. Local clubs use the cobbled Central area for gatherings all the time so you can regularly just walk into a car show for no apparent reason. The shops, especially in Autoworld - can be wallet crippling..... lesapandre and eddyramrod 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MiniMinorMk3 Posted June 5, 2023 Share Posted June 5, 2023 I went to Autoworld in 1995, I must have the catalogue somewhere. It had a good selection of unusual European stuff back then but was quite sparse and empty. It looks like they have expended the collection quite a bit in the last 20 odd years and looks well worth a re-visit. Thanks for posting. lesapandre 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lord Sterling Posted June 7, 2023 Share Posted June 7, 2023 I'll be there in August. Hopefully I'd like to stay for good. I used to live across the road from the 50th anniversary park (Parc du cinquantenaire) where the museums are located. lesapandre 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
