It's pleasant to walk around there with the new infrastructure put in place for the fish and the new walkways.

A new fish ladder – the largest in Wallonia! – a veritable artificial river, allows aquatic wildlife to bypass the dam. The footbridge connecting the municipalities of Amay and Huy has been replaced and extended to span the main road.

The third busiest lock in Wallonia, it's a vital link for inland shipping to Liège, Flanders, and the Netherlands. Recent work has enabled a loading capacity of 9,000 tons since 2024 (previously 2,000 tons).

The current castle was built in 1820 by Count Emile de Liederkerke on the site of a previously burned-down castle, the origins of which likely date back to the 13th century. Many important noble families (Haultepenne, de Eynatten, Horion, etc.) owned the Lordship of Centfontaine. During the nineteenth century, the castle came into the possession of the Cornet d’Elzius family, who gave the facade its current appearance around 1900.

Beautiful chapel at the castle/estate. It's private, so it's not open to the public. It's being restored. It's said to have been built with perfectly cut stones on site and without the use of cement or mortar. Thanks to its perfect construction techniques, the crypt is said to remain bone dry after all this time, even though it lies below the waterline.
