Cần Quan Tâm
During the walk through the historic centre of Durbuy, you will visit the half-timbered Halle aux Blés, also known as the Spanish House. This charming building dates back to the 16th century, although historical records suggest that a structure existed on this site as early as 1380. Over the centuries it served several purposes, including as a grain market and meeting place for merchants. Today, it is recognised as one of the important heritage sites of Wallonia, reflecting the architectural character of the town during the late medieval and early modern periods.
Continuing through the old streets, you will pass the former convent buildings of the Recollets Convent (Durbuy) and the Récollectines Convent (Durbuy), which once housed religious communities that played an important role in the spiritual and social life of the town. Nearby stands the Saint Nicholas Church (Durbuy), originally built around 1630 and later expanded in 1774 to accommodate the growing population. The church remains an important landmark in the heart of the town.
