The castle has undergone several transformations over time. It is not known whether there was already a castle before 1490. Shortly after 1490, Jan van Houthem built a fortified castle with an inner courtyard surrounded by moats. At the end of the 17th century, it was converted into a typical French castle with a French garden, straight lanes and square ponds. In 1705, it was shelled during the reconquest of the southern Netherlands from the French and was largely demolished in the course of the 18th century. Around 1811, a villa in "empire" style was built on the foundations. This villa burned down in 1848 and was rebuilt in the same style. The villa was not ideal to live in due to the damp IJsevalei and was extensively converted in 1926-1927 into the Flemish-style castle as we know it today.
