Jardinet Abbey is a Cistercian monastery founded in 1232 by Thierry II de Walcourt, inspired by a miraculous event involving a statue of the Virgin Mary. The abbey was first inhabited by nuns, then by monks, who led a reform movement in the 15th and 16th centuries. Unfortunately, the abbey was destroyed by the French Revolution in 1793, and only the entrance portal remains today. You will be able to admire the architecture of the portal, listed as heritage, and imagine the life of the monks and nuns who lived there.

The first traces found date from the 12th century. The castle was destroyed several times. In 1790, for example, it was completely destroyed by a fire started by the so-called Sansculottes. The castle was only restored from 1830 after the Hanseval family bought it. They turned it into a house with barns. In 1872 the castle became the property of Louis Mouvet, who from 1896 housed a brewery called "Brasserie de Thy-le-Château" in it. This brewery would exist until 1919, when the industrialist Louis Piret, owner of the local steel factory "Saint-Eloi", bought the castle. From 1928 to 1931 he would completely restore the castle. But in 1940 the castle was again destroyed by an attack by the German army on a French army ammunition transport. The entire charge exploded and damaged the castle. After the war it was restored again. The film De Leeuw van Vlaanderen, which appeared in 1984, was partly shot in the castle. Today the castle, which stands empty, belongs to Mr Corbeau.
