Visit the King Baudouin Memorial Museum in Motril

A Belgian story on the southern Spanish coast
In Motril, where King Baudouin and Queen Fabiola spent their vacations for many years, you will find a special museum: the King Baudouin Memorial. This small but personal exhibition marks the 30th anniversary of the Belgian king's death, with photographs, letters and objects that give a glimpse into his life outside the palace. No grandeur here, but rather simplicity and warmth. Visitors walk past display cases that each tell stories - about a monarch who was loved for his humanity. A place for rest, reflection and a little melancholy.
For those who love history with a heart
The museum appeals not only to royalty fans, but also to visitors looking for an authentic and human story. For Belgian travelers, it is a place of recognition; for others, an introduction to a piece of modern European history. Admission is free, the atmosphere is understated, and one to two hours is enough to take it all in. The museum is open Tuesday through Saturday, between 10 a.m. and 3 p.m. - starting Aug. 1.
