Leignon Castle
The Leignon castle is a nineteenth century castle located in the Namur province of Belgium, a few kilometers south of Ciney. It is a private castle with restricted access to the public.
History
An old building existed prior to the construction of the castle. Located on a former field by Stavelot abbey, its origins may date back to the nineteenth century. Around 1890, Belgian diplomat and early photographer Isidore Jacques Eggermont acquired the castle with over 400 hectares of land, including farm land and woods. He then built a castle around the old building; hiring Belgian architect Auguste Van Assche for its design, after which the castle took its present form.
