Signing of Agreement on Cooperation between Museums of Serbia and Belgium
Agreement between the ministries of defence of the Republic of Serbia and Kingdom of Belgium on cooperation of military museums has been signed today in the Military Museum in Belgrade.
The Agreement, signed by Head of Military Museum Lieutenant Colonel Gradimir Matić and Director of War Heritage Institute of the Kingdom of Belgium Michel Jaupart, envisages joint projects in Serbia and Belgium, exchange of publications and expert collaboration in the field of museology.
Long standing cooperation of the two museums dates from 1917 when occupied Serbia and Belgium had their joint “Serbia-Belgian days” which were held in Geneva, during which funds were raised in order to assist Serbian and Belgian war prisoners.
