Château de Rochefort

Rochefort, Belgium

The Counts' Castle, Château Comtal de Rochefort, was an imperial fief in the Belgian town of Rochefort. It was the center of the county of Rochefort. At the end of the 11th and the beginning of the 12th century, the first lords, the Montaignus, had a fortress built on an enclosed hilltop, of which only the oldest walls and the keep remain. This castle would give its name to the hamlet that arose at the bottom of the fortress.
