Imagine when it comes to four rocky ridges emerging from the dense Ardennes forest at 260 meters above sea level. You're at Bogny sur Meuse, at the foot of 4 sons Aymon, the heroes of one of the most famous medieval Chansons de geste: Renaud, Allard, Richard and Guichard.



Their silhouettes permeated the landscape in full cavalcade as they fled Charlemagne and his troops ready to besiege their Montessor castle. Thanks to bayard fairy horse they were able to leap across the valley.
