House of European History debuts interactive spy newspaper
An immersive journey through European history
Located in Brussels, the House of European History is a one-of-a-kind museum dedicated to telling the story of Europe’s shared past through engaging and interactive exhibits. With a mission to connect people to history and showcase Europe’s collective heritage, the museum uses innovative displays and captivating narratives to make history exciting and accessible for all ages.
A newspaper for young spies
“The Daily Spy” invites young visitors to explore the museum through a thrilling family-friendly treasure hunt. Featuring vibrant illustrations, secret clues, and hands-on activities, the newspaper turns kids into secret agents on a mission. They can uncover hidden codes, discover mysterious artifacts, and use the newspaper’s unique peephole to see history from a whole new perspective.
An interactive adventure for the whole family
Designed for children aged 6 to 12, “The Daily Spy” provides an immersive and playful experience. Available in Dutch, French, English, and German, the hunt includes two difficulty levels: one for kids aged 6 to 10 and another for those aged 10 to 12. This ensures that both younger and older children can join the fun at their own level, enjoying hidden clues, exciting challenges, and intriguing stories as they explore the museum’s treasures.

"With this newspaper, we transform the museum into an exciting quest full of intrigue. Children can discover European history in a fun and engaging way.”
A keepsake full of surprises
Created by Studio Azes, “The Daily Spy” is more than just a treasure hunt—it’s a lasting memento of the museum experience. Printed by Genscom, each newspaper looks and feels like a genuine spy document. At the end of the adventure, children are rewarded with an official spy diploma, a special souvenir to celebrate their detective work and remind them of their journey.
