(French), Flemish  Edingen municipality, Hainaut province, southwest-central Belgium, 16 miles (26 km) southwest of Brussels. Established in the 11th century and a French possession until 1606, it was a medieval commercial centre noted for its tapestry. Modern industries include lace making and linen weaving. The title “duc d'Enghien” was long borne by the eldest son of the nearby princely house of Condé, even after the ancestral castle (the dungeon of which survives as a chapel) and park were sold to the house of Arenberg at the start of the 17th century. The superb park at Enghien was created by Antoine d'Arenberg, son of Charles d'Arenberg and Anne de Croy, who bought the estate in 1606 from Henry IV, king of France. Pop. (1990 est.) mun., 10,160.
