Waroux Castle, Medieval château in Alleur, Belgium

The circular fortress features two distinct towers constructed from flint and limestone on the exterior and brick on the interior walls.

The castle served as the location for signing the Waroux Peace treaty, ending the conflict between the Waroux and Awans families in 1335.

The structure represents the architectural preferences of Belgian nobility, incorporating both military defense features and residential accommodations within its design.

Located in the Wallonia region of Belgium, the castle stands within the municipality of Ans and serves as a heritage monument under protection.

The circular layout of this castle makes it one of the few remaining examples of round fortification architecture in Belgium.
