La Roche-en-Ardenne becomes medieval!

Every evening, the ghost of Berthe - daughter of a 10th-century Count of La Roche - wanders the walls of La Roche-en-Ardenne castle from 12 July to 23 August for this 2014 edition.

Berthe laments her tragic destiny: believing herself to have been betrayed by her fiancé, she sold her soul to the devil on the condition that she could get revenge by condemning them both to death...

Only visible from the town - Quartier du Faubourg.

The ghost doesn't appear in rain or strong winds.
