Chateau Noisy / Chateau Miranda

Chateau Noisy, also known as Chateau Miranda, was a majestic neo-gothic castle nestled in the Belgian countryside. Built in the 19th century by the Liedekerke-Beaufort family, it was a masterpiece of opulence and architectural grandeur. Over the years, it served various purposes, including as a summer retreat and later a hotel. The castle boasted an impressive facade with intricate stone carvings, towering spires, and elaborate turrets that conveyed an air of mystery and historical charm. Its interiors were equally captivating, featuring large halls with high ceilings, elegant fireplaces, and intricately crafted woodwork. Despite its past glory, Chateau Noisy fell into disrepair in the late 20th century, becoming a hauntingly beautiful relic surrounded by dense forests. The abandoned site drew urban explorers with its eerie atmosphere, where the ravages of time added a layer of decay and intrigue to its faded majesty. Sadly, the iconic structure was demolished in 2017 after years of neglect and safety concerns, marking the end of an era for urbex enthusiasts who sought to capture its enigmatic presence through their lenses.
