Explore the Sphinxkwartier on foot
Refreshingly, different
A new part of Maastricht, but then just that bit different. That is the best way to describe the industrial Sphinx Quarter. On the edge of the historic city centre, you sleep, shop, work, eat, drink and enjoy films and music in old factory buildings.
In the historic inner harbour Het Bassin you will find cosy restaurants and studios. The past of the Sphinxkwartier has been given a unique place in the Sphinxpassage: 30,000 tiles tell the story of the Sphinx factories in 26 chapters.
And while you're there, don't forget to take a stroll in its unique backyard: the Frontenpark.
