I passed through there a long time ago and it wasn't lit, which scared the young children present. This tunnel is quite long, without lighting in the middle it's really dark. However, I have seen photos where lighting can be seen. It's a good thing if it is well maintained and lit 24/7.

It's a building that all Molignards know, no doubt thanks to its rather comical facade and the bucolic decor painted on the cement. The house was built at the end of the 19th century and was apparently once used as a naughty meeting place for the local bourgeoisie, hence perhaps its name "Villa des Lapins".

The limestone church, dedicated to Saint Leodegar, is located in the heart of the village and has undergone many changes over time. Initially, it occupied the space of the current choir and was surrounded by a cemetery, but in the first half of the 18th century, it was expanded in successive phases. Its current façade and tower date from 1848. The Baroque altar adorning the church's choir is surrounded by stalls from the former Abbey of Saint Gerard. There is also the tomb of Pierre de Polchet, Lord of Montaigle. In the sacristy, and atop his tomb, stands the tomb of Feuillien Marie Joseph de Coppin de Falaën (1880-1887), first secretary of the provisional government established after the Belgian Revolution. The building features a 17th-century limestone baptismal font and two early 18th-century confessionals.

Ruins of Montaigle © Aurélie Ducroze Montaigle, an exceptional monumental site in Wallonia, is situated on a rocky spur in a romantic setting whose magic transports you back to the time of the knights. A visit to the ruins of this imposing fortress, once a count's residence (14th century), and to the archaeological museum will open a window onto an extraordinarily rich medieval world. In the 100 m² museum, the history of the site and the monument is told through a thematic and chronological exhibition of objects discovered on site (crossbow bolts, cannonballs, tools, pieces of crockery, medals, coins, stained glass, paving stones, slates, jewelry, etc.). The architecture of the fortress and the challenges of saving a threatened monument are also discussed.
