Accommodation
The 9th Carolus Magnus Summer School on Plasma and Fusion Energy Physics will take place at Herbeumont-sur-Semois in the Ardennes in Belgium. The "Corsendonk Eurovillage Ardennes" will host the next international fusion education event.
Herbeumont is a small village that counts approximately 700 inhabitants and is tucked away in the dense woods at the right bank of the river Semois. It is a beautiful authentic place that radiates rest. Nature is magnificent here and the Semois as well as the former railway line (with splendid bridges and tunnels) dominate the surrounding area. Just outside the village centre, at the right bank of the Semois, the remains of a castle from the 11th century, built by Jehan de Rochefort, are to be found. The castle served till the middle of the 17th century as residence for the counts of Herbeumont. The castle was eventually destroyed by the troops of Louis XIV (who left a trail of destruction in the entire region). The ruins of the castle still lie the same as how the soldiers of The Sun King left the place. From the ruins, you have a splendid view over the valley of the Semois. The location of this park offers numerous possibilities in a woody nature reserve of 14 hectares: walking tours and tourist tours, mountainbike, kayak, karting and golf (9- and 18-holes golf court). There are also numerous places of interest to visit: Bouillon, Orval, the impressive valley of the Semois, Torgny, the slate quarry of Herbeumont, the book village Redu and the Space Center. At approximately 13 kilometres, you will find the city of Bertrix, a relatively large place with, shops, supermarkets, restaurants and a train station.
More details - also about fees and funding - will follow soon on this page.
