    Roborst is a picturesque village in the Belgian province of East Flanders, and has been part of the municipality of Zwalm since the municipal reorganization in 1971. Before that, Roborst was an independent municipality. Situated in the heart of the Flemish Ardennes, it is a typical rural village known for its natural beauty and peaceful atmosphere. It is even among the 50 most beautiful villages in Flanders.

      Near the Saint Dionysius Church, in the park of the country house, on the north side, one can still see some remains of a medieval castle. An old Ghent patrician family lived here in the 16th century. The castle was a country residence of knight Rijkaert, 'Lord of Roborst' and mayor of Ghent in 1516. His son Jan Utenhove later became a well-known leader of the Protestant church for Dutch religious refugees in London.[1] The former town hall is the original gatehouse. Roborst was part of the land of Zottegem.
