Franchimont, an ancient fortification in Liège province, occupies a
headland which dominates three pretty valleys in the northern Ardennes, 8
km from Spa. The present remains are a spectacular example of a medieval
fortified castle which was adapted at the beginning of the Modern Age. NEW
: Visits with personal audio-guide. The XI-XIIth century castle forms the
nucleus of the fortress, surrounded by a wall with artillery from the
start of the XVIth century. This structure is one of the rare examples of
the changes in the systems of defence in Renaissance times and the
casemates and their underground entrances form the major attraction of the
visit. Your stay in this romantic place can be rounded off pleasantly at
theCoffee House "Beyond the Castle":restaurant, snacks, drinks for your
picnic, shaded terrace with a view of the castle.
