Avenue Marie-Thérèse

Description

At the corner of the street is an old cast-iron letterbox painted red. Brought into service in 1897, this model bears the trademark of the J.G. Réquilé foundry in Liège. This letterbox
still in use.

Question 12. What time is the postman's last collection?

Here too, two rows of trees adorn the avenue. The presence of trees considerably enhances the street scene. Thanks to the planting, the living environment is more colourful and changes with the seasons. Look closely at the shapes of the windows of the houses as you walk along the avenue.

Question 13. What are the numbers of the two houses next to each other that have a round window?

A round window in a wall closed by a glass frame is an oculus. A round window in a roof closed by a glazed frame is an oeil-de-boeuf.

Question 14. What is the name of the villa at number 32?

According to a census carried out in 1903, 300 villas in Spa had names that personalised them. The names are varied: first name, family name, name of a foreign place. The name chosen can also be related to the site in which the villa is located, or to a plant (flower, tree, etc.) or even a bird, etc.

Turn right on Boulevard Rener
