Tips

  • There used to be a hof van plaisance (country house) here, which was depicted in 1755 in the middle of a park, which even contained an amphitheater.

    In 1894 the castle was rebuilt according to a design by Achille Marchand. The park was laid out in the English landscape style at the end of the 19th century. A pond, an ice cellar with a pavilion above it have been built. There are also bridges, a boathouse and a cave. There are three monumental chestnut trees, including possibly the thickest chestnut tree in Belgium.

    The castle was built in an eclectic style and made of brick and bluestone. The hall is decorated with sgraffito.

    In addition to the castle, there is a staff house with stables and a coach house with horse stables. These buildings also date from 1894.
