Even if you’ve seen a number of churches, this one stands out. As we entered, they were playing Beethoven's pastoral symphony at low volume, which lent a nice vibe. While it had some excellent stained glass windows, the highlight is the statue of Lucifer. You can find it by making a beeline from the entrance to the far side of the church. There’s otherwise not a lot of signage. It’s quite an impressive work, where a handsome, hewn Lucifer has grown a giant pair of demon wings, and looks down sadly at the crown in his hand with which he presumably attempted to crown himself king of heaven. He seems to be pondering the enormity of his mistake. I suspect the church is a bit ambivalent about giving too much attention to the Prince of Darkness, but it’s one of the best depictions I’ve seen anywhere, and plenty of museums would be...

La cathédrale Saint-Paul de Liège fait partie du patrimoine religieux de Liège. Fondée au xe siècle, elle est reconstruite du xiiie au xve siècle et restaurée au milieu du xixe siècle. Elle devient cathédrale au xixe siècle en raison de la destruction de la cathédrale Saint-Lambert en 1795L'évêque Éracle venait de jeter les fondements de l'église Saint-Martin, lorsqu'il conçut le projet d'en élever en même temps une autre, dédiée à saint Paul. Seulement il était fort embarrassé de savoir le lieu le plus convenable à ses desseins, lorsque l'apôtre vint heureusement à son aide.

C'était pendant une belle nuit du mois de juillet; il avait fait une chaleur étouffante, et l'évêque, plongé dans un profond sommeil, se reposait des fatigues de la journée, lorsque, tout à coup, il eut une vision — on sait qu'Éracle en eut plus d'une en sa vie —, saint Paul se dressa devant lui, et, le regardant d'un air bienveillant : « Demain, lui dit-il, demain, mon fils, tu reconnaîtras facilement la place où je désire voir bâtir une église en mon honneur... ». Puis il disparut !

En effet, assure la tradition, le lendemain une neige épaisse couvrait la terre ; un espace de terrain d'une certaine étendue, et situé dans l'Isle, délimité par le bras de la Meuse appelé Sauvenière, en était seul exempt. Au milieu de la place désignée par saint Paul s'élevait une chapelle dédiée au pape Calixte Ier et qui datait des premiers temps de la Cité de Liège ; l'évêque traça aussitôt l'enceinte du nouveau sanctuaire, et y enferma la chapelle. Les charbonnages entourant Liège depuis le haut Moyen Âge, malgré l'interdiction de creuser sous la ville qui ne fut pas toujours respectée, creusant en aval et en amont ont eu pour conséquence de faire de Liège une cuvette et plus tard une digue. Malgré les remparts, les inondations se succédèrent de...

We obviously went for the statue of Lucifer, which was devastatingly beautiful. We couldn't stop looking at it and with every detail it kept getting more fascinating. The rest of the church is very beautiful, big colourful windows, but there's a part (the treasurer) which I assume you need to pay a ticket for, and it doesn't look interesting at all. I think if you just go to the church it's good, and it wouldn't take you more than 30 mins. I wish they had little statues of Lucifer or something you could take home other than the postcard (the picture in which is not that good...

This captivating, must-visit cathedral containing several gems worth seeing in person: - Masterwork neo-gothic pulpit with especially striking statue of satan by Willem Geefs - Colourful mix of renaissance and modern stained glas windows - Ornamental church ceiling decorated with sublime leaf motives (unique in many current day churches) - Opulent gold and silver saint-Lamberts shrine If you have some time and money left I recommend you visit the adjacent treasury which contains the dazzling reliquary bust of Saint-Lambert and reliquary of Charles the Bold.

St. Paul’s Cathedral in Liège is a beautiful place to visit. Walking through the main cathedral, with its stunning stained glass and peaceful atmosphere, is already a treat. What makes it even more special is the chance to explore the back rooms, which are open to visitors. For €8, you can check out the treasure rooms, where they’ve got some amazing artifacts like gold chalices and reliquaries. It’s a great way to dive into the history of the place. Definitely worth it if you’re in Liège!

It's a beautiful church, with amazing couloured glasses / vitrals and really nice work on wood as well. The carvings on some of the structures is amazing. Some parts were being renovated, so I couldn't visit all of it. Also, the façade was also being renovated, which makes the visit a bit frustrating. It's right in the city center, so you can't miss it. I recommend also visiting the Christmas market right in front of the church! Watch out for the traffic, because it can get a bit hectic
