Ottignies-Louvain-la-Neuve has served as a university centre in Wallonia since the 1970s, when the French-speaking Université catholique de Louvain began building its new campus here. The municipality combines the older railway town of Ottignies with Louvain-la-Neuve, a deliberately planned, largely pedestrian university city. Lac de Louvain-la-Neuve and the nearby Bois de Lauzelle bring water and woodland into its urban setting. The Hergé Museum honours the Belgian creator of Tintin.
