Annevoie Castle, Heritage château in Anhée, Belgium
Annevoie Castle is an 18th century château with stone walls and French architecture located in Anhée, Belgium. The estate spans multiple levels and features fountains, ponds, and water cascades that define its grounds.
The Montpellier family built the château in the 1700s, blending French, Italian, and English design influences in its architecture. This mix of styles reflects the European tastes of that era.
The gardens show how water moves through the landscape in a carefully planned way that feels both natural and controlled. Visitors can see how people have used this space to enjoy nature and display their taste through design.
The gardens are open from March through November, and visitors can join guided tours to explore the grounds fully. The old barn on the estate has been converted into a wine production facility where you can learn about local products.
The water gardens operate without modern pumps and rely solely on gravity to move water through the grounds. This rare example of historical engineering still functions after centuries of use.
