Liège's oldest religious building, completed in the century, in the Rheno-Mosan style, with a brightly coloured exterior

It is the last of seven collegiate churches built between the 8th and 11th centuries. Consecrated in 1015, it was transformed between the 11th and 12th centuries, reflecting the grandeur of German Romanesque architecture. The church's polychrome facades give it a special cachet. It houses the Saint-Barthélemy baptismal font, one of Belgium's seven wonders. This work of early Romanesque art is both technically prodigious and aesthetically striking.

Fonds baptismaux
Superbe collégiale juste en face du musée Cursus . A l'intérieur se trouve un petit trésor les fonds baptismaux du XII siècle attribués à Renié de Huy. Bijou de l'art mosan.

Bel édifice religieux
Les couleurs et l'architecture resserrée et tout en hauteur donne un style bien particulier à cet édifice. Malheureusement fermé lors de notre passage.

Venez voir l’une des 7 merveilles de Belgique !
C'est l’un des points de repère les plus connus dans le paysage de Liège et l’une des plus belles découvertes à faire dans le centre historique. Avec ses vitraux, ses peintures de l’école liégeoise des 17e et 18e siècles, l’église à elle seule mérite votre visite. Mais le chef-d’œuvre qu’il faut voir absolument, ce sont évidemment les fonts baptismaux. Les guides bénévoles de Saint-Barthélemy vous en parleront avec passion lors de votre passage. Venez visiter la collégiale…vous ne serez pas déçus !
