Abbey of Brialmont

At the end of a magnificent wooded avenue offering a beautiful view of the Ourthe valley stands this Cistercian abbey.
The abbey is housed in a castle perched on a majestic rock and built in a remarkable park that overlooks the Ourthe valley by more than 100 m.

The knight Eustache de Lamal had the original Brialmont Castle built in 1282.Today, the castle grounds feature a beautiful park and a mushroom farm. A shop sells religious items as well as many products made from home-grown mushrooms.Source: ovatourisme.be/de/decouvrir/patrimoine-bati/ALD-0W-000OU9&type=11

The domain of Brialmont is said to have been founded by Eustache de Hamal, but from 1361 onwards the de Brialmont family is mentioned as the owner of the castle. Since the thirteenth century, the building has proudly looked out from its steep rocks over the valley of the Ourthe and the picturesque village of Tilff. The imposing building was redesigned to meet the needs of the nuns and became the Notre-Dame de Brialmont Abbey in 1961.
