Lassus Castle

Local nameChâteau de Hamoir-Lassus
LocationHamoir, Belgium

Lassus Castle is a château in Hamoir in the province of Liège, Belgium.

The château, which stands on the banks of the Ourthe, was formerly the residence of the hereditary mayors of the village. The oldest part is a small donjon of the early 14th century. Long the property of the de Maillen family, the buildings were entirely remodelled in the 18th century in the Louis XIVth style. Another major remodelling was carried between 1907 and 1920 under the supervision of "Puck" Chaudoir, a wealthy banker from Liège and the then owner.

Of the important outbuildings and supporting structures of the medieval and 18th century phases there now remain only the stables and barns surrounding a courtyard. The least modernised parts of the principal building are the river frontage and the donjon.
