I find it an interesting building but it will depend on you mostly if the experience is worth it for you or not. The builder of this place is a bit of a guru kinda type who wrote many phylosophical books and had a special world view I would say. That sort of stuff I don't care about much. But if that's your cup off tea you'll have a field day. For the 7 euros you can see the inside of the building which takes about 20 to 30 mins and after that you can have a stroll in the garden behind the building where sculptures of this man are exhibited. That's another 30 mins so in total it's about an hour worth of entertainment. Heel apart zo'n toren met die gigantische stenen figuren bovenop de 4 hoeken Prachtig, luguber en draconisch tegelijk. When you visit Tongres, Maastricht or Luik, this is a must visit place. Amazingly peculiar place built by special men and thinkers. Belgian surrealism at its best. Not for beginners. Stairs are steep, be aware. The of Eben-Ezer is a fascinating place to visit for young and old. While everyone will enjoy the and surrounding park, the exhibits primarily cater to adult visitors. Visitors should be aware that access to the top of the requires ascending a winding stair. Awesome monument. Beautiful view. Affordable. Unique visit. Definitely recommended! Loved it. This place is truly unique experience. It earns all it's points for there being no other museum like it. The information is not in English but the staff can be very helpful for providing history and context to the structure. Strange place, very outdated, interesting enough but the prijs could be lowered or the exhibition could be updated with new artist filling the space. Very interesting place. The roof top is cool. But I like the garden with art the most The ground floor is quite interesting, the rest of the exhibition floors are a bit mediocre, but the view from the rooftop is well worth the trip. And the has a very nice park/forest that is sprinkled with art installations throughout. One of the stranger museums I’ve ever seen in the countryside on the border between Flanders and Wallonia between Maastricht and Liège. The creator, Robert Garcet, was an eccentric man so affected by the evils of World War II that in the 50’s and 60’s he used native flint left over from local mining to create an apocalypse museum six stories high called the of Eben-Ezer. It is topped by four winged cherubs (eagle, sphinx, bull and lion) and full of references to the Bible and numerology. Great place to see and visit! Nice walk up to the hill (possibility aslo park on parking just next to the tower), great nature, view, is just stunning! A curiousity probably best seen as a contemporary art work the Tour is an expression of the creator's pacifist response to WWII. The symbolism is explained within. The grounds around are a good playground for children but supervision required. It is nice to see the tower/castle from outside. I wouldn't pay for the entrance for a second time. It is nice to hike around...
