Jupille or Jupille-sur-Meuse (French pronunciation: [ʒypij syʁ møz], literally Jupille on Meuse; Walloon: Djoupeye) is a sub-municipality of the city of Liège located in the province of Liège, Wallonia, Belgium. It was a separate municipality until 1977. On 1 January 1977, it was merged into Liège. [1]
Jupille is the location of the
brewery
Piedbœuf (
InBev group), where
Jupiler is made. It is also the death place of
Pepin of Herstal. It has also been proposed as the birthplace of
Pepin the Short,
king of Franks (751-768) and perhaps even of his son
Charlemagne, Emperor and king of the Franks, but there is no sure proof for these suppositions.
