Welcome to the Mons region, a destination that never ceases to inspire wonder.

The city of Mons invites you to explore an unparalleled cultural richness: the CAP, a museum complex in the heart of downtown Mons, which includes the Museum of Fine Arts, the recently renovated Jean Lescarts House (now home to the Collections House), and the "Poirier Beurré" Garden. For art enthusiasts, there’s the Mons Memorial Museum; for history buffs, the Mundaneum; and also the Maison Losseau, the MUMONS, the François Duesberg Museum, and of course, the Museum of the Doudou. This diverse offering promises an experience to satisfy your every curiosity. Just a few kilometers away, let yourself be charmed by the Mons region and its treasures: interactive discoveries at SPARKOH! or the Grand-Hornu, a majestic testament to our industrial heritage and now a temple of design and contemporary art.
