ACCESS TO THE UNIVERSITY
By Train
As the University campus is no more than 10' on foot from the main station, the train is certainly the best way to get to our campus.
Namur is served by quite a lot of train lines. Just take a look at the map of the Belgian Railways. The main lines come from Brussels, Liège, Tournai, Koln, Luxemburg and Paris.
Trains commute between Brussels and Namur twice an hour. Same from Liège, Charleroi and Mons.
Taxis are also available in front of the station, in case you have to reach an hotel or a place outside the city center.
