Hello all,

Im back again with a report from across the pond. This time, somewhere in Belgium.
You all know it, its Chateau Noisy!!

Visited with Miz Firestorm, Skankypants and Jess N
This was 1 of the 11 sites we hit on our "The Dirty Sock Tour"

What can i say about this place, yes, i had seen everyone elses photos of this place, and yeah, they were stunning. But after you have made it to the front of this place and see it infront of your eyes, its even more beauitful than the photos i had seen before.

It started to rain very heavily when we were inside here and the thunder and lightning added to the experience. Although, the weather did stop me from going out on the roof and doing the "walk of death" to the bathroom with 2 pristine baths. I really wanted to see that room and get my own photo, but honestly, it was getting dark and it was dangerous! Maybe next time, although, after reading the history which i will post now, it seems it may not be around much longer?!

History

The castle was built in 1866 by the English architect Milner under commission from the Liedekerke-Beaufort family, who had left their previous home, Vêves Castle, during the French Revolution.

Their descendants remained in occupation until World War II, when it was taken over by the National Railway Company of Belgium (NMBS) as an orphanage. It remained a facility for the use of children until 1980.

It has stood empty since 1991. Although the municipality of Celles has offered to take it over, the family has refused, and the enormous building is now (as of 2011) in a derelict state. It has become a favourite venue of urban explorers.

The building is planned for demolition during 2014.

On with the photos!!
