    Castle Beukenhof

    In the middle of the park is a neo-Renaissance castle from 1876, which Mayor Karel Vlieghe commissioned to build. Next to the castle house is a porter's house and a gardener's house. The domain also contains spacious warehouses and horse stables that are now used by youth movements from Vichte (KSA and VKSJ). After the death of Karel Vlieghe, Gustaaf Moreels, the then husband of Vlieghe's niece, bought the castle from the estate. Moreels' daughter left the property to her daughter, who in turn sold it to the municipal council of Vichte. In 1973, at the suggestion of the culture council, this 2.5-hectare domain falls under the jurisdiction of the Vicht city council. Since then, the domain has been a public community property. At the end of 2005, a collaboration between the municipal authorities and private partners ensured a thorough restoration of the castle and a bistro/tea room was housed in it.
