The Wixhou Mushroom

Highlight • Monument

Located in the woods of the Julienne, the Wixhou mushroom was erected around 1850 by Count FR-J de Mercy-Argenteau near the chapel and Château d'Argenteau. A small building with a recreational and ornamental vocation, it is a rare element of our heritage which offers walkers a place of rest or even a belvedere. The ornate cast iron barrel was produced by the Réquilé foundries in Liège. The zinc roof presents interesting frescoes under the roofs. In 2017, this factory underwent a major restoration.

Wixhou Chapel

Highlight • Religious Site

Wixhou is located at the top of the northeastern slope of the Julienne valley at an altitude of around 130 m. Located on the edge of the woods of the Domaine de la Julienne, the hermitage and chapel of Notre-Dame au Bois d'Argenteau were originally a modest oratory built in 1683 at the request of Count Louis-Antoine de Claris, Count of Clairmont and Argenteau. The transformations leading to the current construction began in 1849 at the initiative of Count François de Mercy-Argenteau. A pilgrimage takes place every September 8 for the feast of Our Lady of Wixhou.

Julienne Ponds

Highlight • Lake

The Julienne ponds are part of the domain of the same name, after the stream that runs there. The Julienne joins other, smaller streams before ending up in the Meuse, which is much lower. A beautiful area, nice for walking around the ponds and in the woods (with some serious calf bites) and enjoying the flowing Julienne. The ponds and the domain are located at the castle of Argenteau, which looks down on the Meuse on a rock.

In the area you will find various facilities such as a playground, restaurants and more. There are also picnic benches.
