Very nice site, unfortunately it is not possible to pass through the grounds with a bicycle.

Property at the end of the 16th century of the Le Sire family, which in 1664 became the seat of a haughty lordship when it was sold to the Desmanet family, and passed by succession in 1836 to the Bruges family, then to the Orjo family.

It is a limestone building located in the middle of a park in the Biesme valley, which feeds the moat. Of the vast fortified quadrangle dating back to the late 16th or early 17th century, only an isolated northwest tower and two wings to the east and south remain, extensively transformed in the 18th and 19th centuries.

Farciennes Castle is a ruined building, stabilized by a metal structure and covered with tarpaulins, located in a post-industrial environment. One can still see walls built of brick and bluestone for the window frames and crosses, and the chain links of the ridges of the three square towers.

Charleroi district is worth it

The Château d'Acoz, located in the picturesque village of Acoz in the province of Hainaut, dates from the end of the 16th or beginning of the 17th century. Originally built by the De Marotte family, the castle has a rich history and has had several owners, including the Pirmez family. Today it is a private residence, but it remains an impressive sight with its moat fed by the Biesme and its imposing 16th century tower. The castle has an austere appearance, but is a special place with an atmospheric setting.

Located on a promontory overlooking the Orneau valley, this castle which belonged to the counts of Namur is today a hotel. The estate is home to more than 100 hectares of park, where nature proliferates. It is not uncommon to come across wild animals on the property.

Tongrenelle Farm Castle, located in the hamlet of Tongrenelle, Belgium, was once part of a fortress in the County of Namur, first mentioned in 1209. The castle fell into disrepair and was completely destroyed in 1860, leaving only the farmhouse that preceded it. The buildings date from the 17th and 18th centuries and are surrounded by a moat fed by the River Ligne, which lends a certain charm to the site. However, the property is private and cannot be visited, so you can only admire it from a distance.
