Angleur (French pronunciation: ​[ɑ̃ɡlœʁ]; Walloon: Angleûr) is a district and sub-municipality of the city of Liège, Wallonia, located in the province of Liège, Belgium.

It was a municipality until 1977. It is located at the foot and on the slope of a hill in the southern part of Liège, located between the rivers Ourthe and Meuse. The lower part involves an area known as Renory and a railway station called Gare d'Angleur and the higher part is located around the roundabout of Sart Tilman where the Liège Science Park is located.
