In the town center, the Wellington Museum occupies the Duke’s former headquarters, while the 18th-century Church of Saint Joseph contains commemorative plaques for the fallen. Together, these sites offer a comprehensive look at the battlefield's geography and the military strategies of Napoleon and Wellington.
