Liège's Public Art

Liège's urban landscape is defined by an extensive collection of public art, ranging from 17th-century fountains to contemporary installations. This selection highlights the city's artistic evolution, featuring the iconic folklore figure Tchantchès, the student-revered "Li Tore" by Léon Mignon, and numerous modern sculptures from the Open-Air Museum of the University of Liège at Sart Tilman. These works reflect the city's industrial heritage, intellectual history, and its ongoing commitment to integrating art into the public sphere.
