The Grand-Place is the nerve center of the city of Huy. It concentrates many cafes and restaurants. In the center of the square, the “li Bassinia” fountain dates from 1406 and is listed as an exceptional heritage of Wallonia.

The fountain known as Bassinia was built in 1406 on the Grand-Place in Huy. From this period, in addition to the large brass basin, also date the four crenellated towers alternating with four statuettes identified as those of Saint Catherine, Saint Domitian, Saint Mengold and the last count of Huy (10th century). In 1597, the central core was surmounted by a fifth statuette representing the "Cwèrneû", the guardian of the city, who stood at the top of the old bell tower and blew his instrument, a horn, to sound the alarm when the enemy threatened the city.

In the first half of the eighteenth century, the fountain was completed by a wrought iron canopy bearing the double-headed eagle of the Holy Roman Empire. Then, as now, the fountain was fed by a pump that brought water from a spring in the Sainte-Catherine district.
