With an area of more than 130 hectares, the Rivierenhof is one of the great green lungs of the city of Antwerp. Ideal for walkers, cyclists, joggers, petanquers and fishermen, for lovers of tennis, basketball or mini golf. During the summer months you can enjoy music and theater performances in the unique Open Air Theatre. Or just relax in the green.

The pond in front of the castle has the shape of a mirror.
From different places you can see the reflection of
the castle in the water. The pond is part of the
garden construction concept, based on the Renaissance gardens
from Versailles.

After a long walk or while the children are romping in the playground, you can enjoy a drink, a snack or a full meal in the Rivierenhof castle.

Both outside and inside you can enjoy a beautiful setting. With a view of the mirror pond and strolling park visitors or enjoy the shade at the back of the white castle.

The catering business is open daily from 10 a.m. all year round.

Rippling water, a light breeze, a nice drink and friendly people? They are much easier to find here. Especially if you sit down on the terrace of Rivierenhof Castle. The attraction for peace seekers, bon vivants and tastemakers. And all that a stone's throw from your front door.

The facade of the castle
consists of a main building with left and right
a colonnade that connects to the
mutual side buildings. The left side building
used to be the coach house and was converted into
gallery for art exhibitions. The right side building used to be the orangery where the tub plants
wintered. At the same building you can see between the
actual castle and the right side building a bell bell
hang with which one used to notify the staff.

The domain and buildings were constructed as a country retreat in the 16th century.
From 1618 to 1773 it was owned by the Jesuit fathers.

In 1776 the domain came into the possession of a wealthy Antwerp banker Jan Baptist Cogels and the old castle was demolished.
He then built a new Hof van Plaisantie.
For the norm in the 18th century, what we see today was a modern castle. Now you can enjoy the grandeur of a bygone era here.

Nice place for a coffee. With a price of 3.50 euros, it is pricey.

This park is beautiful. It also has an open air theater where they host concerts in summer.
