The Great Castle in my native village dates from the 13th century. It was built in Gothic style. In the 14th century, 2 imposing corner towers were built. Only 1 is still standing. The gatehouse was added in the Baroque period (16th - 17th century). Later, the castle became a moated castle. Now it is the residence of antique dealer Axel Vervoordt If you ever get the chance to get past the entrance gate... DO IT. I have been lucky enough to discover this gem several times in my youth. Now you can simply stroll along the shady moat.
