The Castle of Ecaussinnes-Lalaing was built in the 12th century by Count
Baudouin V of Hainaut and is a magnificent example of medieval
architecture, passed down to us over the centuries. The castle is still
inhabited, but a large part of it is open to visitors as a museum. Here
you can explore the furnished rooms (the great drawing-room, the sick
room and the oratory); the medieval section (the armoury, the dungeon
and the old kitchen); the fine gothic chapel with its masterpieces of
religious art; and a wide variety of collections of interesting
artefacts, including porcelain, ceramics, glassware, paintings, coins
and seals.
