Tournay-Solvay Park and its castle

Source: Stephane De Greef

Description

The Tournay-Solvay park bears the name of its former owners. This pretty estate with its English-style gardens was taken over from the Sonian forest and developed at the end of the 19th Century. There are also remarkable trees such as a Cedar of Lebanon, an impressive giant Sequoia or a beautiful purple Beech. On the other side of the valley, there is an orchard with various kinds of fruit trees and a vegetable garden surrounded by a high wall where the market gardening activity of the former owners of the park is perpetuated.

Built in a Flemish neo-renaissance style, the manor house was partly destroyed by fire in 1984. A renovation project should however revive this monument.
