Hiking
The castle is located about 50 meters above the Viroin river. The outer walls date from the 13th or 14th century. The castle was destroyed in 1554 by Anne de Montmorency during the Eighty Years' War. In 1555, it was finally dismantled during a counteroffensive by William of Orange, the army commander of Charles V.
