20081230 2-2 Belgium, Château Modave
Château Modave appears to be a well kept historical building with numerous artefacts well arranged and combined with Christmas decorations. After having wandered over all available levels and admired every room, we take to the basement where we find a cosy stylish restaurant for a lunch. Our visit ends with a stroll through the hugh wintry garden, after which we drive home over Liège where we cross the river Meuse across the bridge, and follow the river for hours.

A new fortress was built by the Dutch in 1818 at the same strategic location above the town. The 19th century was a period of relative prosperity based on the paper and other industries. The decline of heavy industry in the 20th century was felt here, as in other parts of Wallonia. Today, the city has started to prosper again, thanks in part to its tin products and tourist activity.
In 1970 the Tihange Nuclear Power Station was built.
Folklore[edit]
Every seven years, a religious procession takes place in the so-called 'septennial festivities' in commemoration of the end of a drought in 1656. The last one took place on August 15, 2012.

VIAGGIO in BELGIO: visitare la VALLONIA (Liegi - Durbuy - Dinant - Namur)
Viagio in Belgio: il Belgio ha parecchi segreti che vi sveleremo in questo diario di viaggio in cui abbiamo deciso di visitare la Vallonia, da Liegi a Namur passando per Durbuy e Dinant.
Continua a viaggiare con noi iscrivendoti al canale:
Al mio sesto viaggio in Belgio ho scoperto (e riscoperto) alcuni luoghi della Vallonia tanto splendidi quanto poco conosciuti e che non possono mancare in un vostro viaggio in Belgio, sia per le sue città che per i romantici paesaggi.
Cosa vedere in Belgio? Quali sono i principali luoghi d'interesse in Vallonia?
Giorno 1
Atterrato in serata all'aeroporto di Bruxelles abbiamo raggiunto la prima tappa del nostro itinerario in Belgio: Liegi.
Giorno 2
Dopo la visita alla città (una vera sopresa) ci siamo spostati a pochi chilometri, nei dintorni di Liegi, per ammirare il romanticissimo Château de Modave. Poi Parc des Topiaires, la cittaà più piccola del mondo, Durbuy ed infine l'arrivo nell'incantevole paese di Dinant, luogo natale di Adolf Sax, l'inventore dell'omonimo strumento musicale.
Giorno 3
Visita al paese e salita sulla cittadella di Dinant, dalla quale si gode di una vista davvero incredibile. A pochi chilometri da Dinant si trovano Les Jardines d'Annevoie, un luogo davvero rilassante dove trascorrere un paio d'ore senza pensare a nulla e ammirando i numerosi giochi d'acqua. Visita alla Brasserie Du Bocq, produttrice della celebre Blanche du Namur e poi via verso la tappa finale: la città di Namur, capitale della Vallonia.
Giorno 4
Visita alla città di Namur e rientro a casa! (sigh!)

Fort de huy Mars 2018
Le Fort de Huy est une forteresse, construite en 1818, accrochée au bord de la Meuse et qui domine la ville de Huy, dans la province de Liège en Belgique. ll se trouve à l'emplacement de l'ancien Tchestia, une des quatre merveilles de la ville de Huy.
En 1939, des soldats allemands sont internés après avoir franchi la frontière belge. Le 10 mai 1940, ces soldats passent du régime d'internés à celui de prisonniers de guerre3. Le fort est attaqué par les Allemands peu de temps après afin de libérer les prisonniers. Cependant, ces derniers ont déjà été transférés ailleurs. Dès lors, le fort est utilisé par les Allemands comme centre d'internement pour des prisonniers politiques et des otages principalement. Il est sous l'administration de la Wehrmacht et dirigé par le commandant Frimberger4. Plus de 6 500 patriotes dont Guillaume Vermeylen y sont internés. Les motifs des arrestations sont variables : résistance, banditisme, marché noir, réfractaires au travail obligatoire, otages, communisme, grève,...4 On retrouve également différentes nationalités chez les internés. À partir de juillet 1940, des prisonniers anglais, des grévistes français, des russes sont internés à Huy. Environ la moitié des internés sont des otages. Ils encourent le risque d'être exécutés. Mais finalement, aucun d'entre-eux n'est exécuté sur place mais emmenés ailleurs avant leur assassinat. À partir du 22 septembre 1941, le fort de Huy est également utilisé comme camp de transit avant la déportation vers des camps de concentration, principalement Vught et Neuengamme5. À la Libération, le fort est transformé en centre d'internement pour inciviques.
