Malmundarium

TIME : 2016/2/18 16:43:14

In the covered cloisters of the twin-towered 1784 cathedral, this cultural centre-cum-museum hosts temporary exhibitions to pad out a city history display, carnival room and a quietly movingly, interactive examination of the former local tanning and paper-making industries. Though 'state-of-the-art', the last tannery (and Malmedy's main employer) went bankrupt in 1994. It also functions as a tourist office.
