Truly a House of Wool, the Wool and Fashion Tourist Centre (CTLM) allows visitors to discover the various steps in the process of creating wool cloth through a visit entitled “From Yarn to Fashion”. Through an immersion in three dimensional areas, visitors guided by individual headsets delve into the atmosphere of the golden years of the wool industry. In particular, they can admire a fascinating collection of machine tools, evidence of Verviers’ past. The CTLM also offers visitors a look back on fashion over the ages, shown in comics form by Editions Glénat. The CTLM is housed in the old Dethier factory, which has been splendidly renovated.

Through various interactive audiovisual exhibits, the House of water allows visitors to discover the special relationship the city of Verviers has always had with water, and more particularly with its river, the Vesdre. Here, visitors can view an interactive model of the Gileppe dam, fly over the most beautiful areas of the Vesdre, become imbued with a poetic history of the bonds between the Vesdre and Verviers, as well as flip through a series of Teaching packs covering various water-related themes. The House of water can be visited through unguided or guided tours (reservation required). It also offers educational activities for children 4 to 12 years old, as well as the option of renting an 18th century “salon” for meetings.
