Tumulus aux Six Frères

The Tumulus aux Six Frères is a Gallo-Roman burial mound located in the countryside of the Namur region. Situated near an ancient Roman road, this site consists of modest ruins of an ancient tomb. Visitors go here to see physical traces of early Roman influence in Belgium and to walk through the surrounding rural landscape.

Getting There

The site is located outside the main urban center of Namur. Access is primarily via car or bicycle, as it is situated in open fields. Depending on your starting point in the city center, the drive typically takes 15 to 25 minutes.

Duration of Visit

Because the site is a modest ruin rather than a large complex, most visitors spend between 30 and 60 minutes here. This allows enough time to view the mound and take a short walk along the nearby paths.

When to Visit

The site is best visited during the spring and summer months when the fields are accessible and the weather is mild. It does not typically get crowded, making it a quiet location regardless of the time of day.
