The village of HEURE, with its hamlet of Moressée, has many tourist attractions and leisure spots. The village of FLOSTOY holds traces of the Gallo-Roman population which lived in villas scattered over its territory. SCY, pearl of the Condroz region, the old accounts centre of Namur County, is washed by the source of the Bocq. CHARDENEUX will really amaze you with its architectural unity! Amassed on the southern slope of a ridge, the village is dominated by its Listed church and clings to the slope before descending towards a stream which serpentines through the damp marshes. WÉRIS groups together some lovely half-timbered houses in limestone and sandstone. The little village of NY owes its beauty to the marriage of water and stone.
