Abbaye de la Paix-Dieu

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.

Fry Museum Brussels

The Musée de la Frite, situated in the very heart of Brussels, just a stone’s throw from the Manneken-Pis, is a unique venue entirely dedicated to one of Belgium’s greatest symbols: the chip. Spanning three floors and over 900 m² of exhibition space, it offers a fun, interactive and gourmet journey through the fascinating history of the potato and the famous Belgian chip.

Through modern exhibitions, historical artefacts, films, interactive quizzes and an audio guide available in 11 languages, visitors discover the origins of the potato, its arrival in Europe, the evolution of the chip over the centuries, and the secrets to cooking it to perfection according to Belgian tradition: the famous double-frying method.

The museum also highlights the unique place of chip shops in Belgian culture, as true popular and convivial institutions. The visit concludes with a demonstration of traditional cooking techniques and, of course, a tasting of a cone of authentic Belgian chips – included in the admission price – with a choice of several sauces.

Open daily from 10am to 6pm, the museum offers an experience that is at once educational, delicious and entertaining, ideal for families, tourists and all lovers of Belgium’s culinary heritage.
