Great trail. Beautiful forest.

The ramparts, built in the Spanish period, were modified by the famous Vauban himself. We can still admire the towers surrounding the city since the seventeenth century, as well as many other monuments: the tower of the Edifieur Baudoin, one of the oldest of all, Caesar Bastion built under Louis XIV the Green stronghold and the headquarters hospital, or the Fauroeulx door, the only one that did not suffer the Second World War and its demolition. The current castle, the Cernay, was built in the seventeenth century, replacing the twelfth century built by Baldwin IV of Hainaut. You can still see some remains of the original castle that served as a residence to Charles the Bold, as a gateway and a set of Romanesque cellars.

Passe-tout-Outre is a locality in the Belgian village of Autreppe (commune of Honnelles) located in the Walloon Region in the province of Hainaut. Being at the crossroads of the old Brunehaut road linking Bavay (in France) to Tournai (in Belgium) and the border road from Fayt-le-Franc to Roisin, and located exactly on the French border, the locality owes its name and its reputation to the fact that its café was the usual stopover for smugglers of all kinds, waiting at night to smuggle their goods into France. Only an old and modest customs post and the Auberge du Passe-Tout-Outre (former 18th century farm) keep the memory of these bygone times.

But I still stayed on the street.

Interesting place, a former fortress of Vauban.

Nice little place, beautiful church.

Interesting alte Festung Le Quesnoy.

Le Quesnoy has an undeniable charm. Its fortifications dating from the 16th century are lined with pleasant little paths and green spaces which invite you to stroll.
