Dieupart Castle Estate
Highlight • Castle
Framed by an avenue of protected purple beech trees, the Château de Dieupart presents itself in a significantly altered form today. Nevertheless, it retains an impressive late 17th-century façade on its southwest side, constructed of sandstone and limestone rubble. Some original architectural elements are still recognizable, including tall, round-arched windows on the ground floor and characteristic relieving arches.
The history of the site begins in the 15th century, when an ironworks with a blast furnace and forge developed here. In 1889, parts of these old facilities were converted into a power station. Later, the château was repurposed and transformed into a camping and caravanning center.
On the heights above Dieupart, there once stood another château, the "Vieux-Jardin" (Old Garden). This medieval structure no longer exists; it was destroyed in 1286 by John I of Brabant. According to legend, some of the limestone blocks used in the Church of Saints-Anges in Dieupart came from this former fortress. Remnants of the structure can still be found in the woods above the southern slope of Dieupart.
The Château de Dieupart has been a listed historical monument since December 11, 1986.
