This 'castle', today a catering business, has been part of the experience of visitors to the Minnewaterpark for many years. Next to it there are several beautiful viewing and rest areas and it fits into the picture of the city and park.
Attention: not to be confused with 't Goed Uplosere, mentioned elsewhere here, which is located in the East Flemish municipality of Kruisem...

From 1654, the castle park on Kasteelstraat in Lozer was owned by the della Faille d'Huysse family. In the 17th century, the beautiful castle was called "t Goed Uplosere". The block-shaped castle received its current classicist appearance during renovations in the 18th century.
From Kasteelstraat you can see the symmetrical rear facade. From Appelhoekstraat you have a view of the facade. The 19th century park in English landscape style consists of ponds, winding paths, bridges and accessories such as a walled vegetable garden, a caretaker's house, a dog kennel, a coach house, a tower-shaped garden pavilion, a courtyard and a gatehouse. From the castle grounds, a double avenue leads to the Church of Our Lady of Assistance.
