Huy - District Museum Musée Communal

From the Place Verte behind the town hall a narrow street passes St Mengold church, founded 1244, in its present form the 17th C. Couvent des Frères Mineurs (Franciscan monastery). It accommodates the Musée communal (district museum) which has 12 rooms displaying pewter, glass, porcelain, coins and medals, faiences, guild signs, archaeological finds, paintings and religious art.

Particularly interesting are three rooms completely furnished with old Walloon furniture and household objects, the moving figure of Christ "Beau Dieu de Huy" in oak (13th C.) and a cast of the font from St Barthélemy in Liège by Renier de Huy.
