Yvoir

The Meuse and the Bocq define the setting of Yvoir — their confluence places this Walloon commune between a broad river corridor, wooded slopes and the railway line that follows the valley. Above the village of Houx, the medieval ruins of Poilvache Castle stand on a high spur over the Meuse, recalling the defensive importance of this river route. Yvoir includes several villages; Purnode, in the Bocq valley, is home to Brasserie du Bocq, which has brewed Belgian beer since 1858. The river also contains the small Île d’Yvoir, a leisure island reached by boat in season. Discover other points of interest through webcams located across Yvoir and Wallonia.
