Genappe

The city extends across 89 square kilometers of land in the French-speaking region, containing residential neighborhoods and commercial districts centered around Rue de Nivelles.

The region marks the birthplace of Godfrey of Bouillon, a military commander who led armies during the First Crusade to Jerusalem in 1096.

The municipal government maintains international connections through established partnerships with Narborough and Littlethorpe in the United Kingdom and Franklin in Louisiana.

The city operates under postal codes 1470 through 1476, with the main administrative services located in the center and managed by Mayor Gérard Couronné.

The territory contains multiple sections that merged into a single administrative entity in 1977, creating the current municipal boundaries of Genappe.
