Dinant Essentials

Dinant occupies a narrow strip of land between sheer limestone cliffs and the Meuse River. This collection highlights the city's architectural and cultural landmarks, from the 11th-century Citadel and the Gothic Collegiate Church with its iconic pear-shaped bell tower to the birthplace of saxophone inventor Adolphe Sax. The list also includes the subterranean galleries of La Merveilleuse cave, the ruins of Crèvecœur Castle, and the historic Leffe Abbey, where the Premonstratensian brewing tradition originated.
