    The canon's house at the Speelhof in the centre of Borgloon is a mansion from the second half of the 17th century, built in Maasland Renaissance style and equipped with a service building in half-timbering. The courtyard is closed off by a partly preserved brick enclosure wall with a driveway gate.

    One of the three canons' houses that you will find in the old center of Borgloon and one of the two here at the Speelhof.

    This house, from 1670, was built in the Maasland style. It used to be located on a closed courtyard, and is accessible via a driveway. The brick complex includes a house with a half-built-in, square tower. The slate-covered wooden superstructure is remarkable. The building has horizontal marlstone bands and also corner bands, while the windows are framed with limestone. The side walls are designed as a curly gable.

    The house still contains fireplaces from the 17th, 18th and 19th centuries. The staircase and the doors are from the 18th century.
