The spectacular Florennes Castle (formerly the Château de Beaufort) is a castle that was originally built in the 9th century, although most of the recent structure has been built much later.

The castle is built on a rocky ridge that stretches westward from the center of the old towncentre. The earliest records of construction of a wooden castle in Florennes go back to 842 AD. In 944 The wooden building was reconstructed to a stone castle surrounded by fortified walls by Count Eilbert. His daughter Alpaïde de Hoegarde married Godefroi de Juliers, a Count of Hainaut, and their sons Godefroi and then Arnoul inherited Florennes. The town and castle, owned by Arnoul's grandson Godefroi IV de Florennes (c. 1010–1080), became a fief of the Prince-Bishopric of Liège in 1070. The powerful Rumigny-Florennes family owned the castle as vassals of Liège until the late 13th century.

Most of the fortifications were demolished in 1704 on the orders of Louis XIV of France, but a few towers and ramparts were still standing in 1740.
