ABOUT CHIMAY

The town of Chimay is home to numerous talented photographers, and there are many opportunities to capture beautiful images there.

Chimay is a French-speaking town in Belgium, located in the Walloon Region within the province of Hainaut.

Chimay is situated on the Calestienne limestone belt. This land is well suited to cultivation and was cleared long ago, well before the monastic era. Chimay is, in fact, situated in a large clearing in the Ardennes forest.

Further south, the clearing was extended during the monastic period towards the poorer lands on the northern slope of the Rocroi plateau; these lands were mainly used for livestock farming and low-yield crops, such as rye. In the 18th and 19th centuries, farms set up by individual entrepreneurs continued this clearance, encouraged by the State.

Located in the administrative district of Thuin, it was formed from the merger of 14 former municipalities on 1 January 1977.

The town is home to the Château des Princes de Chimay, where Princess Élisabeth de Chimay resides, and the Collegiate Church of Saints Peter and Paul. Nearby, Lake Virelles is an important site for ornithology. Chimay is perhaps best known for the nearby Abbey of Notre-Dame de Scourmont (in Forges), where Trappist Cistercian monks brew beer and make cheese.

Chimay beer – whether golden, red, blue or triple – is produced using a top-fermentation process (at over 20 °C) and undergoes a second fermentation in the bottle. It is not pasteurised.

Chimay is twinned with Conflans-Sainte-Honorine (France), which lies at the confluence of the Seine and the Oise – a river whose source is in Chimay. It is also twinned with Ramsgate (England).

The Eau Blanche, which flows through the town, rises in a pond that straddles the territories of Chimay and the neighbouring town of Momignies.

In addition to its characteristic narrow streets and distinctive atmosphere, Chimay offers numerous green spaces and pleasant walks. The town provides a suitable setting for photo shoots that showcase your company, organisation or institution.
Chimay is a multifaceted town, well suited to photography.
