Citadelle de Huy
For a great view of the town and the surrounding countryside, take the short but steep walk uphill from the Meuse to the cliff-top Citadelle—also known as Fort de Huy—part of the defenses built by the Dutch in the early 19th century. During World War II, the Germans used it as a prison for resistance members and hostages. It now contains an exhibition about the the living conditions of the more than 7,000 prisoners held captive here, and of the general Belgian population during the four years of Nazi occupation.
