ENGHIEN

This article appears in Volume V09, Page 406 of the Encyclopedia Britannica.

Encyclopedia Britannica - Main :: EMS-EUD
ENGHIEN , a town in the province of Hainaut, Belgium, lying
south
  of Grammont. Pop. (1904) 4541 It is the centre of considerable lace, linen and
cotton
 
industries
 . There is a fine park outside the town belonging to the duke of Arenberg, whose ancestor, Charles de Ligne, bought it from
Henry
  IV. in 1607, but the chateau in which the duke of Arenberg of the 18th century entertained Voltaire no longer exists. Curiously enough the cottage, a stone building, built by the same duke for Jean Jacques Rousseau, still . stands in the park, while the ducal residence was burnt down by the sans-culottes. A fine pavilion or kiosk, named de 1'Etoile, has also survived. The
great
 
Conde
  was given, for a victory gained near this place, the right to use the style of Enghien among his subsidiary titles.
