Fanson Castle, Medieval castle in Xhoris, Belgium

The Fanson Castle extends across a stone foundation in the municipality of Ferrières, featuring traditional architectural elements of Belgian fortifications.

Dating from the 13th century, this defensive structure endured a siege in the 17th century that resulted in substantial damage to its original construction.

The castle exemplifies the medieval architectural heritage of Wallonia, representing the historical defense systems of the Liège Province.

This private property stands at coordinates 50.454755 latitude and 5.61985 longitude, but remains closed to public access throughout the year.

After the 17th-century siege, local residents collected and reused the castle's bricks to construct houses in the surrounding village.
