In this place you have a good view of the Walzin watermill.
It is a well-preserved water mill with a metal center wheel (with wooden spokes), which belonged to the seigniory of the castle Walzin.
It is located at the end of the road Pont-à-Lesse, along the Lesse and belongs to a large farm.
Around 1830 the mill belonged to the Marquize d'Yze, who rented it to a certain Dasty. It is really vengeful how this very touristy watermill is in decline: the canopy above the waterwheel continues to sag. The interior is still complete.

At this strategic point in the Lesse, which used to be a ford, a Hill castle was already noted in the 11th and 12th centuries. This eagle's nest was destroyed from the land up to four times. Only the 11th-century Keep has been preserved. The ruins of this military stronghold mainly consist of that keep with a remnant of about 13m of wall that is 1.70m to 3.30m thick. The first written notes of the Ruins of Cavrenne go back to 1235. In 1489, the then Prince-Bishopric of Liège ordered the destruction of the castle.
