Urban Gîte in Namur
ABOUT THE 19
A modern gîte,
A city
Namur, the capital of Wallonia, is the centre of many cultural and economic events. Are you looking for a gîte ideally located in the Walloon capital? The 19 is the ideal urban gîte especially thanks to its immediate proximity to the Palais des Expositions and the historic city centre.
A number
As its name suggests, « The 19 » is an urban gîte located at number 19 of the street called « avenue de Tabora » in Namur. This beautiful and green avenue in Namur is bordered by mansions on one side and the Sambre on the other. A unique situation for a unique gîte.
An architect-designed house
The gîte is nestled in the personal house of the architect Georges Wargnier (1905-1996) built at the end of the 1930s. As an art deco house, it has kept most of its fittings and ornaments that were typical of this period: facades, stained glass windows designed by the architect, typical ironwork,…
A passionate person
Coming from this family of architects, Annabel Wargnier, the current owner, has managed to preserve the soul of the house by integrating modern furniture and transformations that blend in perfectly with the old atmosphere.
An exceptional gîte, two luxury suites
The gîte contains two suites with a maximum capacity of 2 people, which guarantees you tranquillity and upscale services.
Annabel Wargnier also owns the Ephélide Spa et Institut for more than 25 years. If you wish, you can also book treatments at the institute during your stay.
« It is always a pleasure to welcome you to this beautiful house, you will enter in it as a guest, but you’ll certainly come out of it as a friend. See you very soon. » Annabel Wargnier, Your Host
and his wife Lucy – circa 1932

A must see
The citadel of Namur is an old stronghold dominating the city and the confluence. It is one of the largest citadels in Europe and its vast network of underground passages earned it the nickname « Europe’s termite mound » by Napoleon I. From the remains of the county castle to more recent bastions and canon terraces, it bears witness to more than a thousand years of history.
The site is divided into three parts: Dungeon, representing the lower part, Median for the intermediate part and Terra Nova for the upper part. Its peak reaches an altitude of 190 m.
It is ranked as an exceptional building heritage of the Walloon Region.
