Are you visiting with a group of 10 or more people? Stavelot Abbey invites you to discover "From the Earth to the Stars." This temporary exhibition, focusing on Belgian contributions, is the result of a collaboration with the Cité de l'Espace in Toulouse and the Eurospace Center in Transinne.
Explore this fascinating exhibition, divided into five thematic sections:
- Observing the Earth
- Into Space
- Living in Space
- Exploring the Solar System
- Discovering the Universe
The exhibition showcases real and never-before-seen space objects, captivating images, and films. It strikes a perfect balance between educational content, scale models, authentic objects, and engaging animations. Highlights include a wide range of topics such as Earth observation, political issues, medical and technological research, telecommunications, solar system exploration, and even space tourism.
Bonus: During their visit, children receive an educational booklet designed especially for them!
Belgian Focus on Space Exploration
A part of the exhibition is dedicated to Belgium's role in space exploration, featuring astronauts Dirk Frimout, Frank De Winne, and Raphaël Liégeois. Belgium's ambitious space policy has fostered a dynamic ecosystem, spurring innovation, technological development, and scientific research.
End Your Visit with an Authentic Local Meal at the Abbey
