Château d'Havré

Protected ruined castle from 1226 in Mons, Belgium, open to visitors with a historic castle garden.

Château d'Havré is a ruined castle in the village of Havré, part of the city of Mons in the Walloon province of Hainaut, Belgium. Dating from 1226, it passed through the hands of noble families including Enghien, Harcourt, and Croÿ, and was repeatedly besieged, damaged, and rebuilt. Most of its surviving fabric dates from the 14th to 17th centuries; the current form emerged from extensive reconstruction in the late 16th century. Listed as a protected monument since 1936, both the buildings and the castle garden are open to visitors.
