Ursuline convent in Liège, Religious convent in Liège, Belgium
The Ursuline convent stands in a U-shaped configuration with brick and limestone walls surrounding an enclosed courtyard in central Liège.
The original structure dates from the early 16th century when Gérard Ghyssens built a house and brewery, later becoming a convent in 1627.
The building demonstrates the architectural style of Maas Renaissance through its combination of traditional materials and local construction techniques.
The restored complex now contains an antiques shop, restoration workshop, seven residential apartments, and three office spaces available for various purposes.
Following its time as a convent, the building served multiple functions including a police station, cereal market, and fire station until 1978.
