Église Saint-RemacleThis ancient-looking church was built to follow late Roman style prevalent in the region closely, but was in fact built in 1885.
Bains de SpaThe old building of the city baths has been closed since 2005 and projects are underway to turn it into a luxury hotel. The baths are now in a modern facility in the woods.
Pouhon Pierre le GrandSpa's emblematic building houses the mineral water fountain named after the Russian Tsar Peter the Great, who visited the city in the 18th century and became a big fan of its healing and wellness qualities.
Musée de la ville d'eauxThe city museum collects artifacts of the history of Spa with focus on its springs and related developments. It is housed in a villa that was built for the Belgian queen Marie-Henriette in 1863.
