The Faculty of Philosophy and Arts was created when the University of Liège came into being in 1817, at the same time as the Faculties of Law, Science and Medicine.
From the outset, it was housed in the buildings formerly occupied by the Jesuits, which were shortly afterwards converted into an academic hall. In 1892, it was moved, along with the Faculty of Law, to the new premises on Place de l'Université.
As the number of students grew, the Faculty of Philosophy and Letters moved to the Place Cockerill buildings, and did so completely from 1959 onwards.
The following departments are currently housed in this building:
- Department of Modern Languages and Literatures
- Department of Romance Languages and Literatures
As well as two ULiège Library implatations:
