A Remarkable Ecological Treasure

The Havré Forest is home to an extraordinary diversity of flora and fauna. Oaks, beeches, ashes, and hornbeams create a varied forest landscape, where each season reveals its unique colors and scents. The undergrowth shelters a multitude of wild plants, while ponds and wetlands provide refuge for numerous birds, amphibians, and small mammals.


A Site Steeped in History

A former seigneurial estate, the forest is an integral part of the region’s historical heritage. Once the hunting grounds of local dukes, it has managed to retain its authentic character. Today, it is sustainably managed, respecting its natural and historical legacy.


A Commitment to the Future

The site is the focus of numerous conservation projects aimed at protecting its flora and fauna while offering a recreational space accessible to all. Local reforestation and ecological management initiatives ensure the preservation of this natural heritage for future generations.

Venant d'une fan de vieilles pierres comme moi, je trouve ce château vraiment atypique et magnifique. Certes, il est partiellement en ruine, mais l'architecture est impressionnante. Si vous êtes fans de châteaux, je vous le recommande vivement.

Heel mooi met kleine wandeling eromheen. Gratis entree met mooie tuinen erbij. Wij hebben aan een tuintafel in het park van ons ontbijt genoten met zicht op dit kasteel.Aanrader!

Nationale Feestdag bij Kasteel Havrè België. Er werden medailles uitgereikt en er was een toespraak. Het eten van de catering was lekker en zeer gevarieerd. En aan het eind nog een vuurwerkshow. Top.
