Provincial Palace of Namur, Provincial government building in Namur, Belgium.

The Provincial Palace of Namur is a stone building with symmetrical windows and a prominent central entrance located in the heart of the city. The structure combines classical architectural features with functional rooms designed for administrative work.

The building was designed in the early 1700s by architect Jean-Thomas Maljean to serve as the region's administrative center. It later evolved into a key symbol of provincial authority in Wallonia.

The building maintains its position as the central location for provincial government meetings and administrative decisions that shape the region.

The building is normally not open to the public, but visitors can take guided tours during special events like European Heritage Days. It is best to check in advance when such visits are possible.

The building was originally designed as a Bishop's Palace before it took on its current role as the seat of provincial administration. This dual nature is still visible today in the blend of religious and civil architectural details.
