The Guldendal is a building from 1681 that originally served as horse stables and storage places for the Prinsenkasteel. It is located south of the center of the Flemish municipality of Grimbergen. Since 1980, the headquarters of the Museum of Older Techniques (MOT) has been located here. It houses the administration, the library and exhibition areas on waxing and woodworking. The Guldendal also includes a privately owned semi-closed former farm from the 17th century.
The L-shaped construction in brick and sandstone style is covered with a gable roof with sandstone dormer windows. An open gallery of ten round arches on slender columns is designed in the Renaissance style.
The Guldendal and the castle ruins of the Prinsenkasteel are protected as a village view.

The Guldendal was part of the farm that belonged to the Prince's Castle. The former horse stables were renovated and restored. They currently serve as the main building of the MOT (Museum of Older Techniques).
