Our society faces many dangers: climate change, energy dependence, erosion of biodiversity, conflicts, loss of social ties, impoverishment ... If cities are - at least in part - at the origin of these problems, they can also be the source of solutions! To reflect together on these challenges, the NID deploys 3 spaces: Namur in question Namur in transition Namur tomorrow

Furfooz, a Slice of Provence When it comes to nature, the sunny, rocky cliffs also host quite interesting plants typical of sun-drenched limestone slopes, providing ample satisfaction for numerous insects. The site is also maintained by sheep. Moreover, the park is a recognized nature reserve accredited by the Walloon Region and unique in Belgium. An Exceptional Heritage On the historical side, the Furfooz massif has been continuously inhabited since prehistoric times (caves) up to the medieval period (plateau). Over time, the Lesse River has carved through the entire rocky massif, leaving behind a multitude of caves, caverns, and holes. These have been inhabited by humans for millennia (approximately 14,000 years). Additionally, you can see the start of the Lesse's underground branch. The archaeological heritage is very rich, as numerous objects have been found here, allowing us to trace the site's occupation over time. Closer to our time, a fortress and baths were erected at the end of the Roman period. Only the ruins remain, though the baths were completely reconstructed in 1958; this life-size monument alone is worth the visit!
