Bouillon Castle
13 November 2026
Enjoy exceptional views as you explore this legendary castle steeped in history.
Did you know that the Belgian Ardennes is full of castles? The most famous of them all is undoubtedly Bouillon Castle, built by Godfrey of Bouillon, but whose origins date back to the 8th century! Visiting it promises a journey through more than 1,000 years of history, with its impressive keep, falconry displays, and vaulted halls. The Scriptura Museum, dedicated to the history of writing from the Middle Ages to the present day, is also well worth a visit.
Every year, a medieval festival is organized, immersing you in the heart of the Middle Ages: jousts, battles, medieval markets, groups of actors… It's as if you were there!
In summer, don't miss the Odyssey of Light, a sound and light show that recreates the history of the castle in 180° in the Cour d'Honneur.
Finally, if you're looking for a truly unique experience, don't miss the torchlit tour of the castle in the evening. Discover Bouillon Castle like you've never seen it before!
