    The Palace of the Prince-Bishops of Liège or the Episcopal Palace of Liège is located on Saint-Lambert Square in the center of Liège. The present palace, which became the courthouse of Liège, was rebuilt in the 16th century on the initiative of Cardinal Érard de La Marck on the site of an old building destroyed by the robbery of Charles the Bold. A new neo-Gothic wing, the provincial palace, was built between 1849 and 1853 (Wikipedia).

    There were two predecessors to the current palace building:
    The first, built under Bishop Notger, was part of the fortifications in the inner ring of the city of Liège. It was destroyed by fire in 1185.
    The second suffered the same fate in 1505.
    The city owes the splendor and originality of the current building to Prince-Bishop Erard de la Marck.
    The first courtyard of the Prince-Bishop's Palace can be visited.
