In the late 1800s, a passionate collector Fritz Mayer van den Bergh amassed an amazing art collection. He purchased paintings by Peter Brueghel for a pittance, and managed to beat major museums purchasing stunning medieval sculptures. Mayer van den Bergh had an eye for the best quality in almost every genre. After his death, his mother finally managed to make her son’s dream come true: she built a museum, which showcased his collection. Today, the museum stands largely uncharged: it is still a museum of one man... and his mother. Highly recommended in the Great smaller museums of Europe.

Museo Chileno de Arte Precolombino is located in the city center of Santiago and features exhibits of pre-Columbian artwork and artifacts from Central and South America. This is the perfect opportunity to learn more about the cultures of South America, with a collection covering about 10,000 years.

Get up close to spaceflight history with a visit to the Cape Canaveral Space Force Station. Home to the 45th Space Wing of the United States Air Force Space Command, this is the site of numerous rocket launches and where many American space pioneers were launched. Join a tour for an exciting opportunity to view current and historic launch complexes, visit memorials for Mercury and early Apollo missions, explore the region's wildlife and historic cemeteries, and see operational hangars and launch complexes that support space exploration.

The rooms of this museum are arranged around different themes and contain a wealth of Greek and Roman statues, mosaics, bronze and silver coins, pottery and weapons. The top attraction is the Punta del Serrone collection of bronzes, salvaged from the seabed not far from Brindisi harbour.
