The Enchanted Garden

Art Sanctuary is pleased to announce the twelfth edition of this exceptional cultural event, which will be held from Saturday 26 April to Sunday 12 October 2025.

This year, it is taking place at two sites:

• From Saturday 26 April 2025 at the summer café and sculpture garden ‘Au Moulin des Délices @ Saint-Remy-Geest (Jodoigne), one of the most beautiful villages in Wallonia.
• From Friday 13 June 2025 in ‘ The Enchanted Garden’ @ Jodoigne @ Belgium.

The two sites are linked by the 3.8km ‘’Around The Enchanted Garden‘’ walking and biking trail, which passes an old railway line, the romantic hamlet of Mont-à-Lumay, Walloon Brabant's first nature reserve ‘’Le Marais de Genneville‘’, the square farm with water mill ‘’Le moulin de Genville‘’ in the famous Gobertange stone, ‘’Au Moulin des Délices‘’ and the small village of Sainte-Marie-Geest with its romanesque church.

The excursion can be extended by visiting Jodoigne, Hoegaarden, Tienen, ...

And why not try one of the four restaurants of the ‘Coin Gourmand Le Jardin Enchanté’, each different from the next. You can also spend the night in one of the many B&B guest rooms.
