Le château de Walzin

Installé à l’aplomb d’un large promontoire rocheux que vient lécher un méandre de la Lesse, le château de Walzin a de tout temps frappé les esprits, dont celui de Victor Hugo qui en a laissé un dessin daté de 1863.
Construit à partir du XIIIe  siècle, le château n’a plus grand-chose de médiéval, en dehors de la tour d’angle en fer à cheval (XVe) ; elle possède encore quatre canonnières.
Le reste de l’édifice a été fortement modifié, surtout entre 1930 et 1932. L’option prise a été d’adopter une architecture traditionnelle et de procéder à une unification stylistique.
Mais plus que l’architecture, c’est l’environnement naturel du château qui demeure exceptionnel.
