But I think your remark was valid though. Leopold II's atrocities get very little attention in Belgium compared to Nazism.

There are still quiet a lot of statues of him. Which indeed sounds weird in relation to Hitler statues. It might be an idea to give them the same treatment as the Nazi party grounds in Nuremberg. Proper context next to them.

That is true. I'm Belgian; I can't remember having heard about this e.g. in history classes; it's something I came across later on.

That I find kind of odd. His treatment of the locals in the Belgian Congo is sort of the gold standard for imperial oppression.

What treatment? Wikipedia says that it became a memorial, but doesn't say what it became a memorial to.

This is solely my personal opinion. But it isn't a traditional memorial.

It is in a rather unmaintained state (minimal reinforcement), with relevant information displayed next to and on it and is freely accessible to all.
