The Sphinxkwartier, also known as Belvédère Binnensingel, is a former industrial area in the centre of the Dutch city of Maastricht. The area, which comprises the northern part of the neighbourhoods Statenkwartier and Boschstraatkwartier, is the birthplace of Maastricht's industry. Near the Boschstraat and the inner harbour Bassin lie some fifteen 19th- and 20th-century factory buildings, which in the past were part of the glass and earthenware factories of Petrus Regout and its successor, Koninklijke Sphinx.
