The Montagne de Bueren is a straight staircase of 374 steps that climbs from the Hors-Château district to the Citadelle hill. It was opened in the nineteenth century so that the soldiers of the barracks above could go straight down to the centre, and it bears the name of Vincent de Bueren, who on the night of 29 October 1468 tried, with the 600 Franchimontois, to capture Charles the Bold and Louis XI.
The climb
It is a public place, free and always open. At the top, the viewpoint looks over the rooftops of Liège and the Meuse valley. From there the paths of the Coteaux de la Citadelle link up. The tourist office sells for €0.50 a map of the old town that passes through here.
