Information

The Grand-Poste de Liège (formerly Hôtel des Postes) was built on Rue de la Régence between 1896 and 1901, according to plans by architect Edmond Jamar to house the city's postal services.

The building has not been in use since 2002 and subsequently underwent several renovation projects before being taken over by the investment fund NOSHAQ and the real estate developer BPI at the end of 2016.

The Grand-Poste has been renovated and opened in September 2021. It is a third location with a catering facility, the buildings and studios of the Media, Culture and Communication department of the University of Liège and a community of companies active in the digital, media and entertainment industries.

Four and a half years of renovation, 40 million euros worth of work... The Grand Poste has breathed new life since the end of the summer. It includes 8,000 m2 of coworking space, event locations and creative food initiatives, bringing together the following five uses: a coworking space, a food market, a craft brewery, a location for start-up mentoring programs and the journalism department of the University of Liège.
