There are few places in the Ardennes with such a characteristic appearance as Dinant. That skyline alone: tall mansions, higher church, even higher cliffs and on top of it the citadel. Reason enough to travel to the little town on the Meuse.
The citadel is literally and figuratively the highlight of a visit to Dinant. A cable car takes you up from the Maaskade, but it's actually more fun to take the old stairs, 408 in all. Once at a height of one hundred meters above the city, the citadel looks out mightily over land and water. The fortress has been besieged seventeen times over the centuries! De meest recente veroveraars waren de Duitsers. Een museum herinnert onder meer aan de bloedige strijd die hier in 1914 werd gevoerd tussen Duitse en Franse soldaten en waarbij ook Dinant grote schade opliep.
Near the doors of the Ardennes, along the Lesse, near Dinant, park and nature reserve of Furfooz invites you to discover through a nature walk
