Chemin des Sources | stage 7 JEHANSTER - THEUX

The exact date of construction of this Roman site is actually not known. The bridge crosses the Hoëgne and was in fact on the ancient Roman road from Trier to Tongeren.Damaged by numerous crossings and a violent flood, it was rebuilt in 1767 and renovated again in 1978. The builders were careful not to alter its appearance, in order to retain its architectural beauty. The old bridge of Polleur is a listed Walloon heritage site. On both sides of the parapet we find two remarkable bronze works, a Christ dating back to 1767 and the Virgin and Child - stolen in the 1990s - replaced by a work by Jacques Dubois.

Located only 8 km from Spa, Franchimont, an ancient fortress of the principality of Liège, is perched on a rocky promontory overlooking three beautiful valleys in the North of the Ardennes. The ruins are the spectacular remains of a medieval castle, surrounded by a huge fortified wall dating back to the 16th century. The casemates and their remarkable underground passages are the highlights of the visit.Discover the castle at your own pace with our personal, interactive Audio guides and multimedia presentations !Opening times22 February to 9 March, 11am to 5pm5 to 30 April, 11am to 5pm1 May to 19 August, 11am to 6pm27 August to 30 September, 11.00 am to 6.00 pm1 October to 2 November weekends, 11.00 am to 5.00 pm
