As you follow the route, the walls become canvases for artistic expression, while the façades are adorned with works in a variety of styles and artistic worlds. Some reveal themselves around a street corner, while others stand out in the cityscape and immediately catch the eye.

Between busy thoroughfares, architecture and everyday scenes, street art brings a new dimension to this lively neighbourhood of Mons. This walk encourages you to take the time to see a familiar environment from a different perspective, often passed through without really being observed.

An artistic walk to discover the centre of Mons from another angle and see how, from major thoroughfares to quieter streets, art has found its place throughout the city.
