Giant Public Bench by Lilian Bourgeat, Namur

Highlight • Monument

Both a work of art and urban furniture, this creation by Lilian Bourgeat is intended to be "used", the public, ... invited to sit on this "Public Bench", thus "activating" the work, according to the wish of the artist.

Why has a giant bench, made of steel, aluminum and wood (87 x 500 x 60 cm) recently been placed near the “Capitainerie”, at the “Henry Hallet” marina in Jambes? “In order to see Namur differently, after an effort to be able to sit there,” the French artist Lilian Bourgeat confided to us, while her work was presented to the press, this last Friday June 28, in the presence of Maxime Prévot, Mayor of Namur, in charge of Culture, ... who did not hesitate to join two children who had already sat there.

This emblematic interactive work of the “Sculptures in the City” route, this “Public Bench”, installed near the “Capitainerie”, throughout the summer, was acquired by the City of Namur, for an amount of €85,000. It is intended, subsequently, to be transferred to the Jamboise arrival of the “L’Enjambée” cycle-pedestrian bridge. This “Public Bench” will thus highlight a small park adjoining a building witnessing “belle époque” architecture, the “Villa Balat”, whose high gable will be decorated with a “street art” fresco, which will be created by local artist, Demosthenes.

Bourse de Commerce, Namur

Highlight • Monument

The Bourse de Commerce dates from the 20th century and was built in the neo-Renaissance style and has had several functions over the years. From 1979 to 1995, the Bourse de Commerce served as the parliament building. Today, the Walloon government is based in the old Hospice Saint-Gilles at the foot of the Citadel. During the Second World War, the building, like many other buildings on the place d'Armes, was destroyed during a bombardment and was restored in the years that followed. Today the building serves as a conference center under the name Namur Palais des Congrès.

The Sambre (Dutch: Samber) is a 193-kilometer-long river in France (88 km) and Belgium (105 km). Below its source in the Aisne department of northern France, it flows through the Nord department, enters Belgium near Jeumont, and empties into the Meuse near Namur as its largest left tributary.

Here the Sambre flows into the Meuse. A good spot to take a look at the estuary and the last few meters of the Sambre.
