Ciney

Ciney is a municipality in the Dinant district, located in the Namur province of Belgium. It spans across a large area that encompasses several smaller villages working together as one administrative unit.

The municipality took its current administrative form in 1977 following a major Belgian government reorganization. This restructuring helped streamline local services and gave communities greater control over their own affairs.

The region holds strong French-speaking traditions that shape daily life and local identity. You can see this cultural character reflected in how people interact and in the institutions that serve the community.

The area contains several villages scattered across the territory, each with its own character and things to explore. Plan to spend time visiting different parts, as they are spread out and traveling between them takes time.

The local brewery produces Ciney Blonde and Ciney Brown beers, starting their journey in 1978. These brews have become connected to the place and are enjoyed by both locals and visitors.
