Fort Battice

Highlight • Historical Site

Fort Battice is a Belgian fortification built after 1934 near the town of the same name, about 20 km east of Liège. The fort was part of the outer ring of fortifications around Liège (French: Position Fortifiée de Liège – PFL 1) and covered the eastern front of the city. It secured several road and railway lines. Eight other forts were within range of its artillery (Wikipedia).

Clermont-sur-Berwinne Village Center

Highlight • Settlement

One of the most beautiful villages in Wallonia in Belgium.
The entire town center is worth seeing, but especially the church from 1695 dedicated to Saint James the Elder, the former town hall from 1888 spanning the street, where civil weddings are now often held, and the "Place des Halles". All that remains of the former castle of the Lords of Clermont is a wall with an archway. A few kilometers outside the town is the manor house "Château Crawhez", which has remained almost unchanged since it was built in 1551.
Until the dissolution of the Duchy of Limburg, Clermont belonged to the Herve high bank, one of five Limburg administrative and judicial districts. Like the rest of the duchy, Clermont was annexed by France in 1795 and incorporated into the Ourthe department that was formed at the time.

Herve Viaduct

Highlight • Bridge

In 1873, a few days before the opening of the second section of line 38 from Micheroux to Herve, the Belgian State Railways opened line 38, whose origin is the Chênée station. The station is the terminus of the line until January 25, 1875, when the next section of Herve opens at Battice3 station.
Line 38 declined after World War II. The passenger train service was discontinued in 1965. Now you will find the wonderfully accessible bicycle line here.
