Grâce-Hollogne (French pronunciation: [ɡʁas ɔlɔɲ]; Walloon: Gråce-Hologne) is a municipality of Wallonia located in the province of Liège, Belgium. The municipality is effectively a part of the greater Liège conurbation, separated from Liège city centre by the municipality of Saint-Nicolas. Included within its boundaries is Liège Airport.

On 1 January 2006 Grâce-Hollogne had a total population of 21,753. The total area is 34.24 km2, which gives a population density of approximately 635 inhabitants per km2.

Geography

The municipality consists of the following districts: Bierset, Grâce-Berleur, Hollogne-aux-Pierres, Horion-Hozémont, and Velroux.

History

Grâce-Hollogne was formed by the grouping of former municipalities Bierset, Grâce-Berleur, Hollogne-aux-Pierres, Horion-Hozémont, and Velroux, along with part of Mons-lez-Liège.

The killing of four demonstrators on 30 July 1950 in Grâce-Berleur[2] was one of the most significant moments in the so-called Royal Question of 1950, which grew out of resentment towards King Leopold III and his actions in World War II.

In June 1995 it was from Grâce-Hollogne that Julie Lejeune and Mélissa Russo were infamously abducted to become victims of the notorious serial killer and child molester Marc Dutroux.[3] One of the municipality's schools is now named École Julie et Melissa[4] in honour of the murdered girls, and flowers are still left regularly on the Julie & Melissa Monument.[5]

Economy

Avient Aviation has its Continental Europe offices on the property of Liège Airport.[6][7]
