    There is certainly no shortage of water here. The name Rivierenhof really lives up to its name with all those water features.

      Take a quiet stroll along the many water features. See and be seen. We just sit on a couch ... "People watching"

        On May 7, 1923, the Rivierenhof opened its gates to the general public. It is the oldest provincial domain in Belgium. Later all other provinces followed suit.

        History: In 1921 the last noble heirs decided to sell the domain. Thanks to the alert actions of provincial registrar Jozef Schobbens, the province purchased the domain as a green lung for the already heavily populated Deurne-Borgerhout region where many workers lived. It was hoped that the Rivierenhof would be able to offer them healthy air, relaxation and tranquility.

        The province expanded the park from 40 to 135 hectares. Ponds were dug, lands were raised, castles were renovated and picturesque shelters were built. Bridges, a rose garden and sports fields were constructed. All this to allow everyone to enjoy the fresh greenery as much as possible. 100 years later, the Rivierenhof is still the most beautiful park in the entire province, where visitors from near and far admire everything this special place has to offer.
