Château de Dave

Château de Dave is a historic manor house located in Dave, now part of Namur, Belgium, standing on the banks of the Meuse River. Originally a medieval stronghold from the 14th century serving as the seat of power for the influential sieurs de Dave, the château fell into ruin during the 17th century before being reconstructed and enlarged in the 18th and 19th centuries by the Dukes of Fernan-Nuñez, from whom it derives an alternative name. The castle features a seven-hectare English garden and distinctive riverside location. The property remains privately owned by descendants of the Dukes and is not accessible to the public.
