Boatmen's quarter and its ecomuseum "Le Thudo"

In 1936, in Thuin there were 1,104 boatmen heads of families for fewer than 5,000 inhabitants. The former boatmen mainly occupy this neighbourhood and have decorated the house fronts or gardens with objects from their boats: a boat’s name plate, a hatch made into a letterbox, an anchor, etc. With their close houses built from rubble stone and bricks from the region, the narrow streets are waiting to be explored. There are information panels along the walk. You can get a map from the Thuin Tourist Office.
