This church looks a little sad from the outside, but has some amazing finds on the inside. First, as you go in there is a large carved trumpeting angel which is very impressive. Inside the church, there are several lovely stained glass windows, and the vaulted ceiling above the altar has some remnants of very pretty blue. The best feature is the barrel vaulted ceiling in the main part of the church. There were a couple of boards - unfortunately not in English - that show an up close detailed view of this unique ceiling. Stop by, enjoy the view, and drop a Euro or two in the box to help them maintain and improve this little gem.

It is at the dawn of the 20th century that Leon Losseau developed an ambitious programme to transform this dwelling that his parents had previously acquired in 1873. In 1899, he approached Paul Saintenoy, who would create the “reappropriation” plans. A patient and devoted friend, the architect would be sure to respect his sponsor’s meticulous choices. The house would be fitted with electricity, a coal operated water vapour central heating system, electrical double hung sash windows, a private elevator, panel radiators, glass floor tiling, etc. The renovation would last more than 10 years, and numerous decorators, suppliers, artists are associated with the project. A number of unique constructions would emerge from the plans drawn by Henri Sauvage, Charles Sarazin, then followed by Louis Sauvage; work we can still admire today - marble floors and mosaics with exclusive patterns, panelling and precious wooden furnishings adorned with bronze gold enhanced stucco walls and patterns.

Situated in the heart of the Hainaut province and recognized as a World Heritage of Humanity site by UNESCO since 2012, the Grand-Hornu is a 19th-century industrial gem. Property of the Province of Hainaut since 1989, this heritage landmark is one of the most important galleries of contemporary art in Belgium today. In addition to showcasing the architectural treasures of the place itself, the teams from CID and MAC's focus their activities on contemporary art, architecture and design.
Must visit if you are visiting Mons. The modern art exhibitions are always interesting, even for a non-expert as myself. The site itself makes you wonder about the life of all the coal miners and the fall and rise of technologies and industries. Staff is super friendly. The only thing missing is a good standard exhibition on the origin and evolution of the site.
