Typical Northern European plain castle, preserved on its original plans, walk along the moat after the visit.

The castle of Olhain is a precious example of the castles of the plains of Northern Europe. Preserved on its original plans dating from the 13th century, you can visit the interior or walk along the 80-meter wide moat. The building is due to Jean de Nielles, adviser to John the Fearless, who undertook in the 15th century fortification work. It was confiscated by Charles V, underwent the occupation of the Spaniards who blew up two towers. Its eventful history ended in 1900, when it was bought by Mr. Dartois.

Le château d'Olhain fût construit au XIIIème siècle au milieu d'un étang. Du 1er avril au 1er Novembre, le château situé précisément situé à Fresnicourt le Dolmen est ouvert aux visites libres ou guidés les dimanches et jours fériés. Il vous sera alors possible de découvrir son pont-levis, la tour de guet, le donjon, la chapelle ou de vous promener le long des douves.

This castle is exceptional! The furnished information are full and the monument is very interesting. On sunny days, must be perfect. You can tour moats and after visiting a pleasant restaurant at the café from the castle (opposite the entrance). Moreover, the price is completely unjustified: they could make pay more! Therefore right: run!
