"It is just one room, but you can stay there for more than 1 hour, entrance is free, coat hangers and wc available, inside there are mainly interactive panels dedicated to the Namur city history, development, reconstruction and future, you can watch short movie about the city development, use several panels to educate yourself, also find some books and table-games for children, I think it is worthy to see especially when it is for free, it is connected to the restaurant down bellow so you can refresh yourself, too"

"Friendly staff, the potatoes were undercooked or almost undercooked... the meat was not bad but not exceptional... nice presentation of the original side dish... I came around 2:30 p.m.. maybe it was after the rush (lukewarm meat)... I will come back for a second chance... the setting is ideal... small menu (it's better for me)"
