The Sunday morning market along the Meuse is a Liège institution. It begins early and runs until around two in the afternoon, stretching along the quays from the city centre towards the outer neighbourhoods. The stalls sell everything from second-hand furniture and old tools to fresh bread, grilled meats, vintage clothing, and curiosities of indeterminate origin.
It is less a tourist attraction than a genuine city event — the whole population of Liège seems to be here, and the cafés fill up as soon as the market closes. The atmosphere is informal and a little chaotic in a good way. Arrive before eleven to see it at its best and to have the best pick of the stalls. The market is held regardless of weather.
