Point of interest
1 - Lantin Fort
Hidden in a woody copse in the Hesbaye countryside, this is the only fort of the Fortified Position of Liège not to have been altered since 1914. It is one of the last vestiges of military architecture in good repair from the end of the 19th century.
2 - The Wine of Liege cooperative
Established in December 2010, this co-operative has reintroduced the vine to the Liège region. 12 hectares of vines were planted between 2012 and 2014. The co-operative’s philosophy is focused on respecting people and the environment, with the production of quality, organically grown wines.
