Geography
Belvoir lies 18 km (11 mi) southeast of Clerval on a prominent hill.
History
Belvoir is noted for its castle, built by Jean de Chalon. It has been rebuilt, and the date of 1224 inscribed above the arch of the north tower is the oldest inscription in Arabic numerals in the region.
The lords of Belvoir were noted both in war and in peace: Hervis and Huon were Crusaders, and Vincent, the friend of Louis IX of France, wrote the first encyclopedia.
The Rohan family were the last noble owners of the castle.
