Annevoie water gardens | Meuse Valley

200 years old gardens

Located in the province of Namur, the gardens of Annevoie are the only ones in Belgium... and count among the most beautiful ones in Europe. Their beauty remains enchanting from one season to another.

A stunning castle

Owned by the Halloy then the Montpellier families, the castle hugs a slightly curved shape, inspired by the Rouillon Valley's where the gardens unroll. The castle can be admired from outside but is not open to the public.

Water: the soul of the gardens

No mechanical or electrical pump here: water flows freely thanks to a clever use of the lie of the land. The dozens of waterfalls and fountain rely simply on gravity. The scenes are framed by elegant, symmetrical paths lined with trees.

Beautifully styled gardens

Every turn reveals a different landscape. The French gardens will offer superb perspectives, the English ones a vibrant creativity, the Italian warmth an irresistible warmth, neat rows of majestic trees add to the magic of the place. 

The wooden play area, designed for 3 to 12 years old, is sure to enchant your little ones. Finish your visit with a look at the French vegetable garden, not to be missed.

Sadly, the castle at the heart of the garden cannot be visited.
