The most famous representative of the dynasty, Godfrey of Bouillon (Duke of Lower Lorraine, c. 1060 to 1100), takes us back in time to the late 11th century. Geographically, however, the life story of this man takes us far from his homeland: across the Mediterranean to the Holy Land. He participated as a leading figure in the First Crusade and the conquest of Jerusalem. After the city's capture, he was to become king of the Crusader Kingdom of Jerusalem, but he rejected such a title, arguing that the only king over Jerusalem could be Christ himself, who was crucified and buried here—and resurrected.

Sedan (Land of heroic deeds) The Ardennes massif is followed by a vast plain where the Meuse flows peacefully. This border region was at the crossroads of numerous invasions. Cities were fortified, castles became impregnable. History left a very heavy mark here. In the south, the landscape becomes softer, with a string of soothing undulations, a stark contrast to the battle that was fought there in 1870, in 1814, in 1940. Triggered?

Bouillon Castle is a hilltop castle above the Belgian town of Bouillon in a narrow loop of the Semois river. The complex was built in the 11th century and converted into a fortress in the 17th century. The time when the castle was built is unclear. Its strategic importance lay in controlling the north-south route from Reims via Liège to Aachen between Upper and Lower Lorraine. The complex was expanded into a proper castle under Godfrey III between 1050 and 1067. It was the center of the rule of the House of Ardennes. Godfrey V pawned the castle to Otbert of Liège in 1096 in order to be able to cover the costs of the first crusade. The castle thus became the property of the Bishopric of Liège. In 1134, Raymond de Bar conquered the castle. Bishop Albero II of Liège had the castle besieged in 1141 and the Count of Bar had to cede it back to the bishop. Since 1330 the dominion was called a duchy (Wikipedia).
