In 2023, Liberation Garden opened in Leopoldsburg. In the ‘Chinese Pavilion’, an officers’ villa from 1850, the story is told about two hundred years of garrison town Leopoldsburg and in a new building the stories about the Second World War in the region are told.

This building was built in 1850 as a residence for the Commander of the Engineers who stayed there with his family. It is also known as the 'Chinese Pavilion' because of certain stylistic elements that are reminiscent of the Far East. Since 2023, it forms, together with the small coach house, the new building and the large garden, the Liberation Garden heritage site where the WWII museum and the tourist office are located.
