Although the castle has 35 rooms, it is difficult to get lost in it, as it is built in a rectangle with a tower with a bulbous roof, typical of the Mosan architecture. In the entrance hall, ironwork by Sacré-Notermans leads to the upper floors, while art-nouveau stained glass windows adorn the doorframes.
The main corridor is lined with six large paintings by J. Vuidar, old representations of Liège in 18th century - rue Pierreuse, promenade d'Avroy...
Decorated with the coat of arms of Liège, these views recall the function of provincial councillor of the first master of the place.

A chapel, built at a later date, completes the elegant building. It is more contemporary in style and has brightly coloured stained glass windows, which are attributed to Raymond Rikir, a well-known architect of the 1960s.
