Millennium Tower

Description

It was at the beginning of the nineties that the idea of enhancing the Croix-Scaille plateau was born; It is the highest point at 503 metres above sea level and is the fourth highest peak in Belgium.
The building was inaugurated in October 2001.

The Millennium Tower, designed by Liège architect Daniel Dethier, combines wood and steel. This sixty-metre-high, slender, daring, ... highlights the qualities of Walloon wood and, more specifically, the Douglas firs of the Commune of Gedinne.

Inspired by history - four towers have existed on this peak at various times - this achievement will allow you to discover the landscape for more than 30 kilometres around.

A few figures:
The Millennium Tower reaches sixty metres at the top of the spire intended for aeronautical signalling. The approximate weight of the latter, excluding the stairs, is eighty-two tons. Its base is an equilateral triangle fifteen meters on each side.
The stairs provide access to three platforms located at fifteen, thirty and forty-five meters respectively. The stairs weigh thirty tons and have two hundred and thirty-four steps.
