白い城の後ろにある素晴らしい庭園で、池、彫像、花壇があります...

Poilvacheの遺跡は、私たちの時代の最初の世紀にはすでに侵略してくる野蛮人に対する砦として使用されていた可能性があります。この要塞は1228年には確実に存在しており、当時、周囲を囲む深い緑の森のおかげで、「chastiau d'émeraude」（エメラルド城）という詩的な名前で記録に登場しました。年月を経て、名前はMéraudeに短縮され、最終的に（13世紀後半に）やや奇妙な名前であるPoilvache（牛の毛）となりました。この名前は、敵が生きている牛の群れの中に牛の皮をかぶって隠れ、要塞に侵入するという戦術に由来する可能性があります。 その歴史の絶頂期において、Poilvacheは58の封建地区に対する司法権を持ち、さらに鋳造権を持つ造幣局も有していました。1421年、ブルゴーニュ公フィリップ善良公は、当時Poilvacheが属していたナミュール伯領を購入しました。Poilvacheは1430年に、ディナン、ユイ、リエージュからの陰謀家の一団によって破壊されました。

Fairytale-like castle, perhaps the most beautiful in our small country.

The castle is located in the charming Ardennes landscape between Waulsort and Dinant, directly on the banks of the Meuse River. It was built on the ruins of an old fortress that was destroyed in 1554. Originally a Renaissance-style manor house, it was enlarged and modified in the 17th and 18th centuries. This former summer residence of the Counts de Beaufort-Spontin boasts a refined and cosmopolitan interior. Its salons were furnished and decorated by the 20 generations who have lived there…here, history comes alive in a magnificent setting. The castle's beautiful classical gardens and their orange trees, some 300 years old, are considered an exceptional heritage of the Parks & Gardens of Wallonia. Their design was inspired by the work of Louis XIV's gardeners at Versailles. Stroll through the labyrinth of arcades and head to the foot of the charming Trianon. The well-structured beauty of these gardens offers a distinctive contrast to the wooded slopes and steep cliffs surrounding the valley. Dogs are allowed here, on a leash, and only in the gardens, not in the castle building. Source: https://visitwallonia.de/de/produit/schloss-freyr-und-seine-garten/9559?cookie_lang=de

The Priory of Anseremme originated from a farm belonging to the Abbey of Saint-Hubert, founded in the early 9th century and remodeled in the 16th and 17th centuries. The buildings of Le Prieuré were used by the abbey. Today, the premises are available for rent for weddings and celebrations.

We were very rudely approached and chased off the property as we were leaving. The access situation was unclear to us; all the gates were wide open and inviting. It wasn't clear to us that it was private property; it felt very public. Under no circumstances should we enter. The owner is insulted and argues, and lacks empathy and humanity!

Not entirely privately owned, but it is rented out to wedding parties. Depending on the party, you'll be evicted from the premises in a more or less unfriendly manner.

Beautiful route and views
