Typical Northern European plain castle, preserved on its original plans, walk along the moat after the visit.

Château d'Olhain is a precious example of the fortified castles of the northern European plains. Preserved on its original 13th-century plans, you can visit the interior and stroll along the 80 m-wide moat. The building was designed by Jean de Nielles, advisor to John the Fearless, who undertook fortification work in the 15th century. It was confiscated by Charles V and occupied by the Spanish, who blew up two of its towers. Listed as a Monument Historique in 1989, it is one of the finest medieval fortresses in the region.

bien mais aucune information pour la gratuité de l'entrée pour les personnes handicapées et donc j'ai payé mon entrée.

It’s pretty badly taken care of, ruined even in places, but if you can see charm in that, you’ll definitely enjoy a visit. It is nice to discover some of the entries in the castle and walk around it.

Très beau château médiéval encore en bon état. Visite guidée pour les groupes dans différentes parties du château. Chapelle dans son jus.
Château qui devrait être mis en valeur par la région wallonne.

By chance saw this driving through the local village. Worth the stop to take a photo through the gates.
