Citadel of the Prince-Bishops of the Principality of Liège, including the Allée de l'Absent monument and the Enclos des Fusillés (Fusillies' Enclosure)

A vast fortress built by the prince-bishops of the Principality of Liège, the Citadelle was rebuilt by the Dutch in 1817. Decommissioned in 1892 and used as barracks until 1940, it was used as a prison during the Second World War, when 412 patriots were shot. The Allée de l'Absent monument and the Enclos des Fusillés remain moving places of pilgrimage. Little remains of the ramparts. A hospital (CHR de la Citadelle) occupies the hill, which offers a lovely panoramic view of Liège.

Pour la promenade
La citadelle n'est plus en très bon état et on ne peut y admirer que des restes de remparts. Toutefois, les grands espaces verts et la vue sur la ville font une magnifique promenade.

A nice, renovated hospital. On the other hand, I'll advise you of emergencies in the middle of the night. Between incompetence and total abandonment…

Très beau lieu, chouette à aller voir en été ou lors de la nuit des coteaux après avoir monté la montagne de Bueren ou la rue Pierreuse

Belle balade piétonne à réaliser avec points de vue sur la ville de Liège. Ne pas oublier de regarder au sol sur lequel une plaque métallique reprend le cours de la Meuse et la situation des différents quartier que vous admirerez de ce point stratégique. Ne pas hésiter à descendre vers les escalier de Bueren.
