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.

The Château de Faulx-les-Tombes was originally built in the 10th century as a fortified tower, of which few remains remain of the medieval structure. Around 1340, the castle came into the possession of the Marbaix family. The castle changed hands several times and in 1665 came into the possession of Count Rasse Erasme de Corswaren, whose descendants retained the castle until the French Revolution. The western facade of the current building dates from 1563, but most of the castle was completely rebuilt between 1867 and 1872 in the Romantic style by architect Henri Beyaert, who also designed several famous buildings in Brussels. In 1961, the castle was severely damaged by fire, but it was fully restored to its original style. From 1972 onwards, it was owned by the municipality of Etterbeek and used for purposes including school trips and social tourism. The castle was converted into a hotel and restaurant, but the business eventually went bankrupt in 1988, and the property was put up for sale. Today, the castle is privately owned and not open to the public. It is idyllically situated in a wooded setting along the Samson River.

On the night of June 6 to 7, 1944, around 1:00 a.m. while flying fortresses were returning to England after carrying out their bombing missions in Germany, an aircraft with a softer purr appeared to the west of the plain. The cold of the night and the continuous rain numb the fingers of the team of 4 signallers tasked with their flashlights to mark the parachute zone, indicate the direction of the wind and identify themselves to the plane. definitely. The plane continues its flight towards the east then turns its wing and returns to a lower altitude in the axis formed by the lamps. A green light, then three white lights... and the rustle of parachutes in the sky announces the arrival of heavy containers loaded with weapons and ammunition. Fourteen containers are collected from the ground by the reception team (24 men) and then transported to the PC, in the middle of the large copse. Around 3:45 a.m., another plane arrived from the north and accidentally dropped its containers in the middle of the woods (direction Saint Fontaine) and some of which were found ripped open on the road linking Pailhe to Tahier. Around 4:00 a.m., long bursts of automatic weapons swept the plain. The Germans attack from the south and west, hiding at the edge of the woods. They target the 24 men in charge of reception and the 4 signalmen, trying to surround them so that the guerrillas go back north. Their leader decided to crawl between the SS lines to flee down the plain. This was done, with losses (including the driver of the truck responsible for transporting the containers). During the fighting that followed that night (harassment operations aimed at slowing down the retreat of the Germans), the maquisards still lost 12 men, but took more than 35 prisoners with a good number of SS.
