Bellwood Museum

The Bellwood Museum is a recurring location situated in Bellwood. It is the first of its kind to display alien artifacts to humans. It first appeared in Duped.
==Appearance==
The Bellwood Museum is an elongated building that is six stories tall. The bulk of the building is made up from three of them, while the remaining three stories form the rooves. It is covered by neatly-arranged sets of windows, separated by white pillars. At the front of the museum is the entrance, which itself is preceded by an archway. The building itself is hoisted atop a concrete walkway, which surrounds the building. Stairs lead up to the entrance, guarded by statues of lions, and the walkway otherwise leads to a parking lot behind the museum. Opposite to the parking lot is a small park, with two symmetrical ponds surrounding a small plot of land. Trees are scattered around the museum's green.
In Ultimate Alien, the museum was brick red with a dark maroon roof. In Omniverse, it is instead beige with a brown roof.
==History==
===Ultimate Alien===
In Duped, the Forever Knights attempted to invade it using a paramilitary tank but were soon interrupted by Ben as Rath. Later, the leader of a small faction of the Forever Knights named Urien used a Deterion Energy Mine to burrow his way towards the museum's basement in order to acquire an artifact with Kevin and Sensitive Ben following him. He managed to get the artifact which was a jewel and used it to activate a suit of ancient robotic armor called the Toltech Battle Armor. Sensitive Ben called the other Bens for help. When they arrived, they attempted to fight Urien together but failed due to lack of coordination. So, they all merged back into one using Echo Echo. The original Ben turned into Lodestar and defeated Urien by tearing the battle armor apart using his magnetism.
In Eye of the Beholder, Ben as Humungousaur, Gwen, and Kevin fought some Forever Knights, then Julie walked to him and asked for his help in locating Ship. Humungousaur refused because he thought Julie had broken up with him, but she never did that, though she said that they might as well be broken up. Gwen and Kevin eventually agreed to help Julie. Humungousaur finished off the rest of the Forever Knights.
In Ben 10,000 Returns, the Hands of Armageddon was found by Ben, Gwen and Kevin in the museum. After inspecting it using Gwen's magic, they accidentally activated it and summoned Eon's minions from another dimension. After fighting them off, the trio were visited by Professor Paradox and a new future version of Ben, who then explained what the artifact actually was.
===Omniverse===
In O Mother, Where Art Thou?, the Vreedle Brothers stole some pipes and other equipment from the museum but were stopped by Ben as Four Arms and Rook.
In Fight at the Museum, the museum displayed alien artifacts to humans.
In Vreedlemania, Sandra walked near the museum when the Pretty Boy Vreedle caused chaos. Octagon and Rhomboid fired a cannon at a sign that prepared to fall on Sandra, but she was saved by Ma Vreedle.
