Bouillon Castle

Bouillon Castle is a mighty medieval fortress with over a thousand years of history, stretching across three rocky peaks above the Semois River. It is associated with the legendary Godfrey of Bouillon, who sold it in 1096 to finance the First Crusade.

Discover the 165-meter-deep well with its human-powered wheel, Vauban bastions, dungeons, and torture chamber. The view from the Austria Tower is breathtaking—a 360-degree panorama of the Semois valley rewards the climb up the steep stairs. Falconry shows and knight tournaments transport you back to medieval times.
