Kiewit Castle (not to be confused with Kewith Castle), is a small castle in Kiewit, located in the Kiewit Nature Domain. It is a neoclassical mansion, built in the second half of the 19th century. Originally this was an estate with a few small farms. In 1868 Hubert Dominique Vroonen bought this estate. His son Emile had the mansion built. A park in English landscape style was also laid out. In 1944 the castle was heavily damaged. The domain with mansion was bought in 1953 by the municipality of Hasselt, who rented it until 1970 to the diocese of Hasselt, which had a reflection center there. From 1970-1974 it was occupied by the Trappistine sisters. After this it was transformed into a public park including a petting zoo. Today you will find Natuurpunt there.
