Liège Aquarium-Museum

The Liège Aquarium-Museum, affiliated with the University of Liège, is one of Belgium's oldest and most remarkable aquariums. The museum is home to some 2,500 fish from freshwater and marine environments around the world, spread across dozens of tanks. In addition to the living collection, the museum features an extensive zoological collection with skeletons, taxidermied animals and corals. The whole provides a fascinating insight into the biodiversity of the underwater world.

Accessibility at the museum is good. A side entrance to the right of the main entrance, at pavement and car park level, allows persons with reduced mobility to enter the building and reach a large lift. If you are unaccompanied, you can ring the bell at the side entrance and reception staff will come to open the door and escort you to the lift. The spacious lift, which can be operated independently, serves all floors open to the public. The majority of exhibition content is accessible and visible, and most interactive equipment is usable. A reduced rate applies for persons with reduced mobility and holders of the European Disability Card.

The Aquarium-Museum is located on the banks of the Meuse in Liège, near the city centre. A PMR parking space is situated directly next to the side entrance. The museum is accessible by public transport. A visit is both educational and entertaining, and particularly suited to families.
