Abbey church of Florelle with beautiful baroque stalls, a brewery-mill and rooms with thematic exhibitions

Founded in 1121 by Saint Norbert, the monastery overlooks the Sambre. A remarkable architectural ensemble, it has been occupied by a college since 1819. The construction of the abbey extends from the 12th to the 18th century. The abbey church, a majestic vessel, has superb baroque stalls. The brewery-mill is the oldest surviving industrial building in the Namur region. The rooms of the abbey farm host thematic exhibitions or craftsmen at work. Esperanzah, a festival of world music, has been making a splash for many years.

Superbe endroit, juché sur son promontoire rocheux. En circulant sur la route nationale, vous ne pouvez pas le manquer. Les bâtiments sont superbement préservés et méritent le détour. A la fin de votre visite, je vous conseille de tourner à gauche en descendant le chemin d'accès afin de passer un moment à la brasserie. La charpente en bois est superbe et les spécialité régionales sont disponibles telle l'excellente tarte au fromage (sucrée), à déguster avec un café ou une bonne bière.
