The castle was built in 1627 in Flemish Renaissance style. It was the seat of the lords of Reninge and had predecessors that served a more military purpose. The owners, the Vilain family, obtained the right from King Louis XIV to add the number XIIII to their name, because of the French leanings of the residents.

During the First World War the castle was severely damaged and subsequently restored, with some minor changes.
