't Hof van Brussel is a castle in the Belgian municipality of Sint-Lambrechts-Woluwe in the Brussels-Capital Region. The castle is located at Heilig-Hartplein 10 in the south of the municipality, near the municipal border with Sint-Pieters-Woluwe. North of the castle is the Church of St. Lambert, and about 300 meters south of the castle is the Church of St. Peter in the Centrum district of Sint-Pieters-Woluwe. The castle was built in the 16th century. The castle has been a listed monument since April 28, 1994.

The church has the oldest known roof structure in the Brussels region, dated between 1195 and 1199 thanks to a tree-ring analysis. In a display case in the right aisle is a wooden statuette of the Virgin Mary, the work of King Albert I while still a teenager. His sister, Marie-Joséphine of Belgium, a Benedictine nun in Namur, donated it to the church in 1940. The oldest elements of the church were classified by royal decree dated April 27, 1942. Restoration work was carried out on the boundary wall and the Sacred Heart of Jesus in 2011, using materials that were respectful of the original (lime mortar, ecological agents) to repair damage due to humidity, pollution, and biological attack.

Château Malou is a beautiful neoclassical property built in 1776 in a splendid park by the Brussels merchant Lambert de Lamberts. It replaced a small country residence known since the mid-17th century. The castle was owned by Pierre-Louis Van Gobbelschroy, an Orangist minister at the end of the Dutch period (1829). The famous minister and financier Jules Malou (1810-1886) occupied it from 1853 and gave it his name. Municipal property since 1950, it now hosts exhibitions and conferences. Weddings and golden wedding anniversaries are also celebrated there. The park was listed in 1993.

Event castle in a great setting

Great place to start your walk or have a drink, without forgetting its cultural side

The Trois Fontaines pond is a natural setting with a dungeon right next to it. It is not possible to access it directly but that does not prevent the view and the setting from being very nice!

The Halle Gate is a former city gate in Brussels that now serves as a museum. The gate is located in the Small Ring of Brussels, at the end of Hoogstraat and the beginning of Waterloosesteenweg. It was built in 1381 and is the only Brussels city gate that has been preserved. This is also the last part of the former second city wall of Brussels that has been preserved. A metro station in the immediate vicinity is named after the gate, see Hallepoort metro station. The Halle Gate is surrounded by a park that bears the name of this building. When the first Brussels city wall gradually became too small for the ever-expanding city, it was decided to start the construction of a new, larger city wall. This wall, the route of which corresponded to the current Brussels inner ring, had seven large city gates: the Schaarbeeksepoort, the Namur Gate, the Leuven Gate, the Anderlechtse Gate, the Lakense Gate, the Flanders Gate, and of course the Halle Gate. At this time, city gates were usually named after the access roads on which they were located. In the case of this gate, the road led to the Brabant city of Halle, from which it also owes its name. The main function of the gate, like the rest of the wall, was military.
