The fortified castle of Fallais dates from the 13th century and was built by the Beaufort family. It was the place of historical meetings and Reformed preaching. Occupied by Louis XIV in the 17th century, it escaped destruction thanks to village women offering Liège waffles. Restored in 1881-1882, a fire in 1937 damaged it, then it became a home for the elderly.

It can be visited.
