Heritage, our legacy!
© Service communication - Province de Hainaut

2012-2022, a decade highlighted by the recognition of UNESCO for the four major mining sites of Wallonia, of which Grand-Hornu is part. Although a major event is being prepared for the fall, heritage remains at the heart of our events. Thus, between winter and spring, between women's rights and Misère au Borinage, between walks and projections, heritage is blooming from its mining ground for the blossoming of our living cultural landscape.
