Liège Aquarium-Museum: dive in a magical aquatic world

The Aquarium

The Aquarium's 50 tanks are home to 2,500 fish (300 species in total). Amongst them are the legendary piranhas, clownfish with their anemones, blind cave-dwelling fish, stonefish... Let alone the blacktip reef sharks and baby dogfish! A wonderful (but dry!) immersion in the ocean, sea, lake and rivers worlds.

The Museum

The museum, in turn, showcases the riches and beauty of the animal kingdom. There are 20,000 specimens to admire (preserved, stuffed, skeletons): from the smallest flea to the largest whale, anacondas, spiders, shells, a stuffed bear, chimpanzees and other primates.

The TréZOOr room

The TréZOOr room features scientific, historical and artistic specimens: wax models, the prestigious Blaschka collection, extinct species, naturalised specimens.

The Créatures EXTRAordinaires exhibition

Discover anecdotes and stories on animals that inspire legends, tales and folklore from all around the world. The exhibition also lets you create your very own creature.

A combined offer for a max of discoveries

The doors of science are wide open: your entry to the aquarium also gives you access to the Maison de la Science and its many spaces: the Planetarium, the botanical aisles and the evolution gallery.

Heads up! The Museum of Zoology, on the second floor, is actually closed for work. But don't miss the Créatures EXTRAordinaires, open until December 2023.
