The listing does not name its castle or give its history, so the dates above describe the surroundings. The photo shows the Château de Dieupart, listed on Wikipedia in the hamlet next to the listing's location; it is not confirmed that this is the same building.
Dieupart, on the left bank of the Amblève facing the Heid des Gattes rocks, has an old church begun in the 13th century and a castle that housed ironworks from the 15th century.
