Some of the cool maps inside the museum:
Charles Werrebroeck (right), who brought all the bricks from Belgium
about 1900 to build the house that is now home to the museum (below).
The house is a beautiful representation of old-world Belgium architecture and design.
Pretty fall flowers attract loads of bumblebees,
at the entrance to the museum.
