The date 1577 is engraved above the door. Since its foundation, the castle has been owned by the same family, the Rimberts or Rymberts, although the surname has been passed down from father to daughter. Because this family did not emigrate, it survived the French Revolution without losing its property. Although citizen Rimbert, a former nobleman, was ordered to remove part of the fortifications, loopholes, battlements and gun ports from the fortified house during its most turbulent period, in 1794, Robert de Rimbert, a former soldier and invalid pensioner, was before the Revolution of 1789, at the beginning of the Revolution even asked by the inhabitants to command the National Guard. The castle originally had two towers on opposite corners and two rectangular watchtowers. In 1925, restoration work resulted in the widening of the windows and the creation of a second floor, with pedimented windows recessing into the base of the roof. The building was placed on the monument list in 1927. The house is now a private residence and is open to the public by appointment.

Lac des Vieilles Forges is surrounded by forests and meadows. You can enjoy views of the water and wildlife while circling the lake. The lake is also part of a hydroelectric system that pumps water to and from two reservoirs to generate electricity.

Located in the heart of the territory of the commune of the Ardennes Thiérache, near the forest of Pothées, it was recognized by the Charter of Milon de Nanteuil in 1208. Crossed by the departmental road 8043 halfway between Charleville-Mézières and Hirson and 10 minutes from the A304 it is a lively town center with various shops, businesses, artisans and services. A dozen sports and cultural associations animate Maubert-Fontaine all year round. Maubert-Fontaine is home to many monuments: Saint Nicholas Church, with inside the war memorial, sculpted by a Mauberian, Henri Migeot; Fountain; the private high school, with its lime tree, which was requisitioned by the Germans as a hospital during the 14/18 war; the war memorial; the Stele of Saint Remi. From this, along the forest alley of the dead girl, we arrive at the crusher where in 1915 the Germans exploited important quarries. Several personalities originating from Maubert-Fontaine have passed through the history of France and their names have been given to certain places: Jardin Bidois, former Jean-Marie Carré college. Other important characters were part of Maubert's story, such as Nicolas de Caruel and Napoleon Bonaparte who came to rest at the Hôtel du Grand Turc on the night of Waterloo. The proximity of the forest allows beautiful walks with certain points of interest: the 2-legged oak and the oak of the Franco-Belgian friendship. In the town you will find various sports facilities for all ages: playground, multi-sports ground, petanque ground, fitness room, sports complex, fishing pond.

Saint Martin, to whom the church of Aubigny-Les-Pothees is dedicated, is - next to Saint Nicholas - probably one of the most popular saints of all. The memorial day of the former officer in the Roman army is November 11th. On the night after the famous “coat sharing”, when he surrendered half his army cloak to a freezing beggar, Jesus Christ appears to him in a dream. He then converted to Christianity and was later elected Bishop of Tours (France) - initially against his will.

Two Merovingian cemeteries from the sixth and seventh centuries were discovered on the territory of the municipality. During the Hundred Years War the village was besieged by the Armagnaks. Aubigny-les-Pothées was burned to the ground in 1643 at the Battle of Rocroi. At the beginning of the First World War in 1914, the village church served as a simple hospital. The church was built in 1851. Source: Wikipedia
