Project Benelux Rework: Liège

Arriving in Belgium? Then Liège is one of the cities you will want to visit when the Benelux Rework project for Euro Truck Simulator 2 is done! And in today's blog, you are about to see why.

Nestled on the Meuse River in eastern Belgium near the German and Dutch border, Liège is a beautiful city with a long history reaching back more than 1,000 years. As the cultural center of the Wallonia region, Liège has many stunning historic landmarks. Often called "the fervent city", it grew through the coal and steel industries that shaped the region for decades. While much of that heavy industry is now part of the past, Liège remains the economic and logistical center of the province.

Approaching the city via the E25 and heading south onto the A25, drivers will follow the Meuse River toward the industrial area around Monsin Island. This hub features a riverport depot, along with delivery opportunities to a landmark beverage factory located on the western riverbank, recreated to represent its real-world counterpart as a recognizable landmark alongside a nearby office building and a hydroelectric power station.

Continuing along the E25 toward the west leads to the impressive E25–E42–E40 interchange, offering scenic views of the city skyline with several distinctive high-rise buildings. From this route, truckers can also spot some of Liège's most notable architectural landmarks, including the striking modern Guillemins railway station, the Basilique de Cointe, and the Interallied Memorial of Cointe overlooking the city.

To further enhance the feeling that you are really there, our map designers included a few more recognizable details in the map, such as a waste recycling complex by the river, the tall pillar of the De Wandre Bridge visible on the horizon, and the Mémorial Albert Ier standing at the tip of Monsin Island.

And that's it for today. We hope you have enjoyed this preview of the wonderful city of Liège!
