I passed through there a long time ago and it wasn't lit, which scared the young children present. This tunnel is quite long, without lighting in the middle it's really dark. However, I have seen photos where lighting can be seen. It's a good thing if it is well maintained and lit 24/7.

Ruins of Montaigle © Aurélie Ducroze Montaigle, an exceptional monumental site in Wallonia, is situated on a rocky spur in a romantic setting whose magic transports you back to the time of the knights. A visit to the ruins of this imposing fortress, once a count's residence (14th century), and to the archaeological museum will open a window onto an extraordinarily rich medieval world. In the 100 m² museum, the history of the site and the monument is told through a thematic and chronological exhibition of objects discovered on site (crossbow bolts, cannonballs, tools, pieces of crockery, medals, coins, stained glass, paving stones, slates, jewelry, etc.). The architecture of the fortress and the challenges of saving a threatened monument are also discussed.
