The Heritage Trades Centre, based on the site of the former Abbaye de la Paix-Dieu in Amay, has the fundamental mission of preserving and passing on knowledge and expertise in the field of architectural heritage and old buildings. Various awareness-raising, training and information activities are organised there, reaching a wide and diverse audience, from the youngest to the most specialised.
Every year, several hundred pupils and students from primary, secondary and higher education, as well as teachers, take part in the educational activities of the Centre des métiers du patrimoine.
The Centre also offers a wide range of specialised theoretical and practical training courses for professionals in the construction and heritage sectors.
The Centre de la Paix-Dieu provides administrative support for the joint master's degree in conservation and restoration of immovable cultural heritage, which brings together five French-speaking universities and a college.
