Resteigne Castle is a sturdy 18th-century castle located near the picturesque bridge over the Lesse River. It has a long and rich history, dating back to the 12th century, when it belonged to the Loraine family. It has changed hands several times over the centuries, passing to the Berlo, Mérode, Rouveroy, and Hoffschmidt families. The castle is now privately owned but can be rented for events and weddings.

A castle steeped in history. Nearby (less than 3km away) are the ruins of Baron Hofschmidt's Hermitage, featuring famous poems by Lamartine, Boileau, and others, engraved directly into the rock with exceptional calligraphy.
