Burg von Franchimont

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.
