      From this location you have a beautiful view of the meander of the Semois. Your field of vision is colored differently every season.

      Know that the legend of the giant can awaken at any moment.

        Botassart hides in a wide valley floor containing the beautiful natural site of the 'Tombeau du Géant', inscribed on the list of exceptional heritage of Wallonia. Victor Hugo himself was a great admirer of this corner of the Semois, considered one of the most beautiful.

        In a beautiful setting of forests, the Semois meanders in a long meander, strangled around a rocky hill. The regular shape of the wooded hill surrounded by the river has earned it the name 'Tombeau du Géant'.



        According to legend, a Gallic giant was murdered by a Centurion from Labienus' army. His body was found by an old man who, with the help of young teenagers, buried him on this hill that has since been called 'Le Tombeau du Géant'.
