Liege, located in the French-speaking region of Wallonia in Belgium, has a rich history of urban development that spans centuries. The city’s strategic location along the Meuse River contributed to its early importance as a trade and manufacturing hub. Here is an overview of the history of urban development in Liege:

  1. Medieval Period (9th – 15th centuries):
    • Liege’s origins can be traced back to the 9th century when a Carolingian fortress was established on the site. The city gradually developed around this fortress.
    • In the 12th century, Liege became a major center for metalworking and trade, particularly in iron and weapons manufacturing.
    • The city gained a degree of autonomy and developed a unique political structure, with a Prince-Bishop ruling over the secular and spiritual aspects of the city.
  2. Renaissance and Baroque Period (16th – 18th centuries):
    • During the Renaissance, Liege experienced cultural and economic growth. The construction of notable buildings, such as the Prince-Bishop’s Palace, reflected the prosperity of the city.
