EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning aerial view captures the charming village of Hierges in the Ardennes region of France, nestled in the picturesque Meuse valley on the Belgian border. The focal point of this historic village is the magnificent Chateau de Hierges, a 16th-century Renaissance-style castle with its impressive curtain walls and towers standing proudly on top of a hill.
The history of this chateau dates back to the 9th century when it was first built, only to be destroyed in the 12th century. The current structure we see today began construction in 1560 and has since been listed as a historic monument, showcasing its significance in French heritage.
The blue sky serves as a perfect backdrop for this architectural marvel, highlighting its intricate design and grandeur. The image captures not just a building but also centuries worth of history and culture that have shaped this village into what it is today.
As you gaze upon this photograph, you can't help but feel transported back in time to an era where castles reigned supreme and villages like Hierges were bustling hubs of activity. Manuel Cohen's skillful capture truly brings out the beauty and charm of this hidden gem in Grand Est, France.
