Description

Fondée au VIIIe siècle, l’abbaye accueillit en 825 les reliques de saint Hubert, évêque de Liège († 727), qui fut, dès lors, considéré comme l’apôtre de l’Ardenne. Invoqué pour guérir la rage, le saint fut à l’origine d’un important pèlerinage. Plusieurs églises abbatiales se sont succédé Saint-Hubert et l’édifice actuel, élevé au rang de basilique en 1927, compte cinq nefs, un déambulatoire et plusieurs chapelles. Si la crypte et les tours datent des XIe  et XIIIe siècles, l’intérieur a été construit entre 1525 et 1564 en pur style gothique. La façade baroque est du début du XVIIIe siècle, ainsi que l’élégant palais abbatial. Actuellement, il abrite le Service des Archives de l’État et la Direction des Affaires culturelles de la Province.
