Musée de l'Eau et de la Fontaine is without a doubt one of the leading museums in Belgium that deals with the educational, and somewhat thorny issue of clean water, its uses, its origins and how critical it is to the world. The museum was created with the young in mind – educationally speaking – to teach them all about water. The Museum of Water and Fountains at Genval , province Brabant Wallon, Belgium, offers two unique collections. One relating to the history and distribution of water and the other collection a very significant array of items, notices, documents etc. relating to the technical, scientific and environmental aspects of water. Most of the material of course relates to the issue of managing water resources in our present day world.

Guided tours are offered with a special focus on children and their education. The goals of the Museum of Water and Fountains are to inform and raise the public awareness to guarantee the conservation, restoration and improvement of fountains and good management of our water resources. To do this the museum brings together every manner of water and fountain possible to illustrate their point. Interesting note: the history of fountains through the centuries is really quite fascinating.
