Known to all Namurians, without exception, the Searching for Utopia statue by Jan Fabre is a must-see stop in our progress within the citadel. In 2015, Namur organized a flagship exhibition entitled Facing time Rops/Fabre.

The citadel is the Attraction to see in the discovery of Namur and Belgium on a larger scale. We come here to walk, eat, attend events and why not follow a small guided tour. There is no need to say, the possible Things to do on site are varied today.

Not a season passes without the citadel offering its most beautiful panoramas of the Walloon capital. From the top of this site, perched at 190 meters high, the view really has no limits. Below, you can see the entire expanse of the rooftops of old Namur where the dome of Saint-Aubain Cathedral is lost, recognizable by its blue-green color.

The time has come to set foot in the history of Namur as we approach the Halle al’Chair, located on the right of the bridge. Goodbye to the 21st century and hello to the 16th century! At the request of the then Governor of Brussels, Philip II of Spain, this large building was built for the attention of the butchers of the city.

Namur in culinary specialties, what do you review? We see you coming up with the timeless beer/fry combo which, of course, is a great classic in any corner of Belgium.

Dear friends, let us introduce you to the unique and true church of Saint-Loup. More than for its history which began in 1621, as a chapel for the Jesuit college, the religious building fascinates with its noble architectural appearance. Look up and you will see what we are talking about.

Considered one of the most beautiful buildings in Wallonia, both in terms of architecture and size, the provincial palace was the most important building in Namur until the 18th century.

Classical in style, with baroque and rococo touches, Saint-Aubain Cathedral proves how perfectly it has survived history. To arrive at this 78-metre long and 17-metre wide building, it took 16 years of work begun in 1751 and a complete reconstruction after the abundant flood of the Sambre, which occurred around 1900.

Just as important and symbolic as any monument of the Belgian city, the stilt jousting of Namur is an unmissable folk parenthesis in our tour itinerary.

Inside this refined and listed 18th-century former Inn is one of the city’s most iconic cultural addresses. Particular mention is made of the Namurois Museum of Ancient Arts, which presents heritage treasures from the Middle Ages and the Renaissance from the region.

Here, here, there's a lot of people at the windows of this building. What's going on? Truer than life, all these silhouettes together form in their entirety the famous Walloon fresco.

It is mismatched with this whole urban complex that the Royal Theatre easily catches our eye. While brick is the Big Rising Star of Old Namur, the cultural site puts on a bright sandstone garment.

Now you are at the foot of one of the most representative images of the Belgian destination. While it is designated as the belfry of Namur, this stone tower was actually a defensive element in the third enclosure of the city in the 14th century.

While many opt for a cat, a dog, or a rabbit as a pet, Djoseph and Francwès preferred snails. Never without each other, these two Namurois are characters straight out of the imagination of Jean Legrand, a local writer and painter of the 20th century.

A pearl of the Place d’Armes, the Palais des Congrès de Namur opened its doors at this address in the early 2000s. But long before seminars, congresses, conferences or general assemblies took over the place, there was the former Bourse du Commerce.

Like his friend the Belfry, the Marie Spilar Tower is a vestige of the third enclosure that surrounded Namur at the end of the 14th century. If its imposing appearance in carved limestone instantly sets us on this path, another detail reminds us just as much of this past fortified site.

While you are strolling along the facades, looking for the beautiful nuggets of Namur, a deep opening emerges at your fingertips revealing a pleasant viewpoint.

If we tried to get you to the very tip of the confluence, it was because we had a good idea in mind. And we’re sure that by the time you start looking around, you’ll quickly understand where we’re going.

Who says big building often says big functions. In front of you is precisely a very good example of this kind. Formerly reserved for the Saint-Gilles Hospice, this imposing building was converted as the seat of the Walloon Parliament in 1985.
