The Château de Moha is a medieval feudal castle in Wanze, built on a rock at the confluence of the Mehaigne and Fosseroule rivers. Dating back to the 7th century, the castle served as a defense for the region. It became the property of the Prince-Bishops of Liège, who used it as a fortress and prison. In 1376, the castle was captured by the inhabitants of Huy through deception, marking the end of its military function. The castle subsequently fell into disrepair, but the ruins have been preserved and are open to the public.

The "Rocher du Château de Moha" is a limestone outcrop rising from the Mehaigne valley. It was a strategically important site in the Middle Ages, when more castles were built on rocks. This made the site difficult to besiege, and it was well-placed as a control point over the valley. The rock is very recognizable in the landscape. The ruins on the rock are still clearly visible, and the medieval structures are still easily recognizable.
