If you like, you can climb one of the spiral staircases that lead to the Tour des Joncs, at the foot of the hills of the Citadel.
Back in the centre, the Museum of Religious and Mosan Art features a very suggestive collection illustrating the development of religious art.
In the Place Saint-Lambert, you will find the Museum d'Amsembourg. Here you can discover the European decorative arts of the 18th century.
