Christmas at Liege

This time I visited Liege at Christmas time. The day I was here, was a bright sunny day in December and the visit brought me new insights of the city.

At Christmas time the Christmas markets are open. That means for Liege here you will find many special offers for consumption (Belgium Typic) and other interesting things.

But I got also new impressions visiting the Curtius Museum, the church Saint Bartholomew, the Musee de la Vie Walloone and the Saint Pauls Cathedral.

To give you the right photo impression I have decided to show you the photos in three different categories:

Monuments,
Street life,
Facades.

Monuments

Liege was destroyed several times in the history. But today you will find still impressive monuments. Let me mention the font in the Collegiate Church of Saint Bartholomew. Remember this is an artwork of the 12th century.

Let me show you the photos I took, in the photo gallery you will find the expressions. Double click on a photo will open the gallery.

Street Life

The urban life during Christmas time is changing. Shops have a specific decoration, Christmas Markets are open , Christmas stars and lights you will find at any corner.

With my photos I wanted to catch this Christmas moments on the street, please enjoy:

Facades

As I mentioned before Liege has a long history and was heavy destroyed several times. This development you will find also in the facades of the town. A very good sample is the facade of the Musee de la Vie Walloone.
