Belle Alliance : ウィキペディア英語版 | La Belle Alliance
La Belle Alliance is an inn situated a few miles south of Brussels in Belgium, chiefly remembered for its significance in the aftermath of the Battle of Waterloo. After the battle, at around 21:00, the Duke of Wellington and Gebhard Blücher met close to the inn signifying the end of the fighting. Blücher, the Prussian commander, suggested that the battle should be remembered as ''la Belle Alliance'', to commemorate the European Seventh Coalition of Britain, Russia, Prussia, the Netherlands, Sweden, Austria, Spain, Portugal, Sardinia, and a number of German States which had all joined the coalition to defeat the French Emperor. Wellington, who had chosen the field and commanded an allied army which had fought the French all day, instead recommended Waterloo, the village just north of the battlefield, where he himself had spent the previous night. Nevertheless in 1815 the ''Rondell'' plaza in Berlin was renamed Belle-Alliance-Platz to commemorate the victory. The building is currently used on Friday and Saturday evenings as a night club.
