Château S
Visited in 2017
Duration of visit : 2 hours
In the 1640’s, this château was built for a rich family in which it stayed for centuries. In the 1850’s the -also abandoned- coalmine across the street opened and from the early 1900’s the château served as director’s residence.
After the 1950’s the château got abandoned. Big parts of the floor have been cut out, probably to prevent damage to the structure in case of a collapse. Only very few remnants remain of the former glory the château once had.
In 2017 it was sold, with the obligation to restore the protected building. But so far, little work has been done.
