The Le Paiges were a prominent Herentals family. Several Le Paiges have been mayor of Herentals. When Henri Le Paige was born in 1806, his father had thirty oak trees planted on the domain on the Nederrij. The seeds of the arboretum had been sown. It now contains more than seventy different tree species from all over the world. The pond in the garden is the last remnant of the old fortresses around the city.

The castle dates from 1892. Elements from the Renaissance, Baroque and Classicism form a neo-style. In the interior we find an impulse to Art Nouveau. The wrought iron fence around the front garden is made by the Herentals iron foundry Van Aerschot.

The castle houses Kempens Character. The arboretum is open every day from April 15 to September 15 from 8 am to 9 pm, from September 16 to April 14 every day from 8 am to 6 pm.

On the domain you can walk quietly and also enjoy a bench.
