Château de Halloy SA

Ciney, Belgium, Belgium

---

Château de Halloy is a historic castle in the hamlet of Halloy (Braibant) near Ciney in the province of Namur, Wallonia, Belgium, set on sloping ground along the Bocq river on land that was already inhabited in Gallo‑Roman times and has hosted several successive castles over the centuries.

In the Middle Ages it was one of the most important sites in the Condroz region and served as a residence for the prince‑bishops of Liège, notably Théoduin of Bavaria, who stayed there between 1048 and 1075, and in later centuries the fortified place evolved into a more elegant 17th‑ and 18th‑century pleasure castle built in limestone with a classical layout, a central block topped by a slate roof and triangular pediment, and two lower wings enclosing an inner courtyard.

The entire domain, which covers more than 10 hectares and includes a park with century‑old trees, an pond, woods and the river, has been fully restored and is now operated as a private venue under the company Château de Halloy SA (registered in 1993), offering accommodation in 14 bedrooms with en‑suite bathrooms, a games room, billiard room, hunters’ room with fireplace, and several symmetrically arranged reception and conference rooms that can host up to 150 people for meetings and up to 132–180 for dinners, making it a popular location for weddings, seminars and private group stays in the countryside close to Ciney and the Namur region.
