In the heart of the Fagne, halfway between Chimay and Couvin, lies Lompret, one of the most beautiful villages in Wallonia. At first glance, this peaceful village, nestled along the winding banks of the Eau Blanche, may appear modest, but it boasts a rich cultural and historical heritage.
Numerous flint tools discovered in the area bear witness to human presence dating back to the Neolithic period. The discovery of a Roman camp and treasure also attests to the village's strategic importance in the third century AD.
Beyond its status as a jewel of the region's cultural and historical heritage, Lompret's underground landscape holds unexpected geological and palaeontological treasures.
