Castle ‘Froidcour’ at Stoumont (Belgium) (2)

Here’s a second picture of castle ‘Froidcour’ showing another side of its impressive appearance.

The first castle at this site was built in early medieval times to guard the valley of the river Amblève.

Around 1600 a new castle was built on the foundations of the old one but that too was demolished and replaced by the present castle in neo-medieval style at the beginning of the 20th century (1912 – 1919)

The castle is superbly located, isolated and surrounded by vast forests.

Another side of the castle can be seen in the picture below[fc-foto:28894387]
