Grand Curtius
This imposing 8-storey building from the start of the 17th century was the store of a rich arms merchant. It has art and history collections.
Musée d’Ansembourg
Now a museum (Musée d’Ansembourg), is worth visiting for the well-preserved original interior.
It was the last of 7 "collégiales liégeoises" to be built, near the end of the 11th century. It is home to the masterwork of the Liège goldsmiths from the Middle Ages: the baptismal fonts from the old parish church of the cathedral.
Mountain of Bueren and the slopes of the Citadel
Climb the imposing staircase of 373 steps framed by small houses and gardens, or opt for the smaller streets and stairways leading up to the Citadel's slopes. From the top, you'll have a lovely view of the city, from the Palace roofs to the ancient watchtower.
It will be integrated into the future Museum Grand Curtius, but can now be visited separately.
Musée de la Vie Wallonne
An ethnological museum hosted in an old convent.
