I would mostly recommend it to families with children or huge fans of aquariums. The collection is not one of those huge ones but definitely worthy seeing 20 minutes walk from Liege-Palais station. Watch out for the first Sunday of the week: it is for free and it gets pretty crowded and warm.

Combined with the zoological exhibits, this makes a good trip for small children on a rainy day. The elevator is out of order as of our visit on 6 Oct 2012, so be sure everyone can climb the stairs (or you can carry the stroller) if you wish to see the zoological exhibits. There is a small, reasonably priced gift... More

This place is great to visit with kids and a perfect spot to hide from the rains on a rainy day. This is not the largest Aquarium we have seen by far but enough to enjoy a 1 to 2 hours visit. The Zoological museum is also very nice and it is definetely worth a visit if you are in... More

This is a museum grown out of the Liege university collection. If you are used to some of the huge 'experience' aquaria you can visit in coastal towns, then this underfunded small aquarium will not impress you. The collection is still nice.

It can be visited. Nothing very great. We have so many zoological museum so if you are looking for something different or special. It may not be this one. Better to visit Aquatopia in Antwerp. ................;)

This is a lovely museum, lot’s of fishes of around the world, nice explanations and proper museum, with the same ticket you can visit (upstairs) the zoological museum, very interesting with stuffed animals from the African savanna. We had a really good time. Just in from of this museum you could take a small boat and have a city tour... More
