(source Website of the castle) The castle of Beloeil has been established for eight centuries in the middle of its moats, in the land of Hainaut. The vast stately home of the Line princes was first a medieval fortress but over the centuries has been transformed into a pleasure castle. (...)
The castle is not an anonymous, static museum. The objects it contains bear witness to their variety and the evolution of art in general. The very rich library contains 20,000 books, from the invention of printing to the present day. The furniture is a sampling of the works of the best French cabinetmakers of the 17th and 18th centuries

The legend of the sunken coach
the boiling fountain of Stambruges hides the legend of the sunken coach. This unusual phenomenon has fueled a tragic legend linked to the place. In fact, it is said that in the past, one of the princes of the house of Ligne, to which Beloeil castle belongs, not far from here, was nicknamed the great devil. A nickname due to his reputation as an unrepentant gallant. He invited a young lady to spend a romantic evening on Good Friday. The unfortunate woman never returned to her home ... Coach, horses, coachman and young girl disappeared body and well in the waters of the spring. Nobody knew that she was the cause of the accident… divine punishment or jealousy… Some murmured that the mad coachman in love with his mistress could not bear that she gave herself thus to this prince so depraved… He then rushed all his crew in the dark waters, reputed to engulf forever objects and living beings trapped in the sands that sleep at the bottom ... This is how since midnight, every Good Friday, it is said that the coach reappears for a short time. We then hear the driver cracking his whip ... Before he dives again until the following year ...
