The Castle of the Counts is the only example of monumental civil architecture from before the 19th century in Mouscron. Four great families of Seigneurs succeeded one another here over six centuries. Today, on this vast estate, you can still admire the Tournai-style castle, as well as a farmyard surrounded by the remains of outbuildings from the 16th and 17th centuries, and a site surrounded by moats. A self-guided walk around the moats offers you the opportunity to explore the entire estate. Two major historical events have left a lasting mark on local tradition and folklore: the visit of Charles V, who spent the night in the castle, and the atrocities of the famous Hurlus, followers of Luther (during the Wars of Religion) who pillaged the region, occupied the castle for three months, and stole its furnishings.

The Polderhoek is currently a forgotten piece of land near the A19 motorway, next to the Witches Monument. It is almost unthinkable, but during the war there was a beautiful park in the Polderhoek valley. The southern Polderhoek Castle stood in the middle of the park. The Polderhoek Castle, popularly known as the “Flower Castle”, was one of the most beautiful castles in the region. The castle was built around 1850, was over 30 hectares in size and had Italian architectural influences. From the beginning of the First World War, the beautiful park was occupied by the Germans. In 1914, the front ran right through it and the park was then on German territory. On 4 October 1917, British troops succeeded in taking the northeastern part of the park. However, they did not get any further and the offensive was stopped on the ridge. The entire area was shot to pieces and the Reutelbeek, which flowed through the park, formed a wide swamp. Triggered?

In the park behind the Vanackere castle (the current town hall) there are two gloriettes. These gazebos, probably built before the construction of the castle in 1896, initially bordered the park. A wall ran between the two, which was demolished when the park was expanded. The pavilion to the east of the town hall has a double landing staircase and a built-in ice cellar. No original interior elements were preserved in the pavilions. Source: Inventory of Immovable Heritage

Between 1894 and 1896, Jules Aimée Constant Van Ackere had his mansion replaced by a castle in an eclectic architectural style. The Kortrijk architect Cyriel Vanhoutte was inspired by various neo-styles for this building. The castle and park were closed off from the public road by a cast-iron fence with two gates. With the reconstruction of the Kortrijk-Menen road in 1960, the fence in front of the castle disappeared. During the First and Second World Wars, the house was requisitioned by the German occupiers to function as an "Ortskommandantur". Purchased in its entirety by the municipality in 1953. To this day, it serves as a town hall. Source: Inventory of Immovable Heritage

This building from the end of the 19th century was in fact a cotton mill, rebuilt after a violent fire in the "neo-Gothic" style with crenellated walls and stepped gables. Inside this fortress, the engineers fought a form of battle: relentless competition against British factories. And for this, the Roubaix industrialists "drew" very strongly from English methods, their processes and their machines... an almost fair battle! After the end of the activity in 1981, the factory, taken over by the State, was transformed by the architect Alain Sarfati. It now houses the National Archives of the World of Work.
