Computer Museum
More than 150 collector items including some unique relics from the beginning of the computer area are stored in this Alibaba cave cherished by Jacques Laffut, former Unsiys employee, founder and curator of the Museum.  The collection was first shown in October 1989 to mark the official opening of the new Unisys building in Belgium. It all started at the end of the '60s when Jacques Laffut started to collect and restore prototype machines when the pace of technological change really took off. His principal aim was to build a permanent tribute to the memory of the pioneers, Burroughs and Sperry, who built Unisys, a sort of memory for the future.The Unisys Computer Museum is one the few officially recognized Technology museums in the world. Visits can be arranged on request (groups 10-15 persons max) and are guided by the founder and curator himself.
