Medieval city

Standing on a rocky spur, the little city of Walcourt has withstood the test of time magnificently, preserving its remarkable architecture. As you stroll through the old town, perpendicular streets twist and turn, bearing witness to the medieval spirit.

In the Middle Ages, the annual markets and fairs brought wealth to the city: to ensure their long-term future and their protection, the lords equipped themselves and became allies to powerful families such as the counts of Namur or Durbuy.
