Castle Terlenen, Grazen

The Terlenen castle site, on the border of Grazen and Rummen (Geetbets), is a well-preserved example of a 19th-century manor farm. An extensive farm, brewery and distillery complex leans against the house, which was conceived as a country house from 1820. Until the French Revolution, the Terlenen farm was part of the extensive possessions of the Cistercian abbey of Oriente (ca. 1234-1798). The name seems to refer to a local knight family. It is said that the site was almost completely rebuilt and expanded in successive phases from 1820 to ca. 1900 following heavy damage by the French troops.

The farm site is dominated by the manor house, which is dated '1820' by a chronogram on the facade. The rectangular volume is built in brick on a high plinth in sandy limestone. It comprises a basement, two storeys and a mezzanine under a projecting slate hipped roof on a toothed cornice and grouped grooved consoles in two groups, the whole crowned with a wooden bell rider. The facade finish consists of a red-white painted cement plaster. The central entrance is accentuated by a double door in Empire style, surmounted by a balcony with a wrought iron railing. A wide, hard stone landing with stairs creates a certain monumentality.
