The castle was originally built in 1354 by Renaud de Waimes, a vassal of the Duke of Limburg. Its strategic location on a rocky outcrop overlooking the Warche River served for centuries as a defensive fortress and residence of noble families. After centuries of decay, Reinhardstein was completely restored in the 1960s by Professor Jean Overloop, who restored the castle to its current medieval appearance. Today, it is a museum and heritage site, with rooms filled with weapons, furniture, and tapestries. The castle offers impressive views of the Warche Valley and the Robertville Dam.

Here, the Warche River carves deep into the Ardennes rock, creating a series of natural rapids and small waterfalls. The river's power is particularly evident between Bevercé and Bellevaux, with swirling waters swirling between dark rocks and forests teeming with moss and ferns.

Theoretically, you could even walk across the river today, as there was only a little water. The bridge has no railing and some wooden beams are missing, but you can still get across easily ;)
