Halle al'Chair, Archaeological museum in Namur, Belgium

The Halle al'Chair features a rectangular structure with limestone base, brick facades in cross-pattern, and four distinct levels including cellars and an attic.

Built between 1588 and 1590 under Spanish governance, this building served as a central meat market where butchers processed and sold their products.

The museum displays a collection of archaeological artifacts spanning 2500 years of regional history across its two exhibition levels.

Located at Rue du Pont 21 near the Sambre River, the museum offers visitors direct access to Namur's historical center and waterfront area.

The building's transformation from a 16th-century meat market to an archaeological museum reflects the evolution of urban functions through centuries.
