Magnificent. Dinant is a beautiful town, the Citadel is built on the hill of the town on a fantastic spot. The Gothic architecture influenced by other styles of European and classical eras, is wonderful. So many things to see. From the war museum to the Disney museum. History and Art meet there, a must go for everyone that visits Dinant and Belgium in general. Great view of the city and the river from the rampart of the fortress. Beautiful ride with the cable vehicle that rides you to the Citadel.

Broch of Gurness

The Broch of Gurness is an Iron Age broch village. Settlement here began sometime between 500 and 200 BC. At the centre of the settlement is a stone tower or broch, which once probably reached a height of around 10 metres. Its interior is divided into sections by upright slabs. The tower features two skins of drystone walls, with stone-floored galleries in between. These are accessed by steps. Stone ledges suggest that there was once an upper storey with a timber floor. The roof would have been thatched, surrounded by a wall walk linked by stairs to the ground floor. The broch features two hearths and a subterranean stone cistern with steps leading down into it. It is thought to have some religious significance, relating to an Iron Age cult of the underground.

The remains of the central tower are up to 3.6 metres high, and the stone walls are up to 4.1 metres thick.
