Probably, originally, one of the peripheral fortifications of the castle of Moha. In 1234, under Hugues de Pierrepont, Thiry de Lardenois de Famelette is castellan of Moha and this charge remained in his lineage in 1441. The allodial lordship of Famelette is held by Colar de Hosden, by succession from Maroie daughter of Thiry Lardenois. In 1558, through the marriage of Catherine de Hosden, it passed to the Berlaymont de Floyon, who would keep the castle until the beginning of the 19th century. Subsequently owned by the Aspremont Lynden, it was repurchased around 1878 by the Collinet family. Located on a spur overlooking the Méhaigne, the castle developed around a square-plan keep built in the 14th century, now to the west of the complex. Most of the current buildings date from the mid-16th century. Construction in limestone rubblework once covered with a pink wash. Slate gable roof with eaves and hip. Two hip dormers, facing outwards. To the right of the porch, stable wings under hayloft from the mid-16th century in limestone rubblework. The southwest side of the courtyard is occupied by a significant dwelling, redeveloped twice in the 18th century, on a mid-16th century core. chateau-fort-manoir-chateau.eu/chateaux-province-liege-chateau-de-famelette-huccorgne.html
