Tips

The Singelberg ("canal hill", a kind of motte) in Beveren is the oldest fortification of the land of Beveren and is therefore closely linked to the origin of the municipality. Today only the derelict hill on which the castle was built remains. In 1975, the Singelberg was protected as a landscape.
De Singelberg should be distinguished from the modern office complex Burcht Singelberg of the same name on Ketenislaan in Kallo, where the main office of Katoen Natie, located in the Waasland harbour, is located.
The Singelberg, now a derelict, eight-metre-high, earthen hill located in the northwest of Beveren, about 2.5 km from the Markt, is the only remnant and symbol of the historic place where the seigneury of the land of Beveren, the predecessor of the current municipality of Beveren, once originated. The original name of the Singelberg is Beverenbroeck, a water toponym that refers to the swampy marshland around the earthen hill.
