Dinant

Among Wallonia’s cities, Dinant is distinguished by its striking position between the River Meuse and a limestone cliff crowned by its citadel. The Collegiate Church of Notre-Dame, recognisable by its bulbous bell tower, stands beside the water below the fortress. Dinant is also the birthplace of Adolphe Sax, the 19th-century inventor of the saxophone, and references to his instrument appear throughout the town. South of Namur, it forms part of the Meuse valley, where roads, rail lines and promenades follow a narrow corridor between rock and river.
