The description is very accurate. Thank you.

The Château Rose was built by order of Albert-Pierre Stier (1745-1816). In 1776, he bought the seigniory of Orp, as it had been known since the end of the 17th century, when the land of Orp-le-Grand was merged with that of Orp-le-Petit. The pillory of Orp-le-Petit at the front is one of about fifty in Belgium that are listed by the Royal Institute for Cultural Heritage. When our country was invaded by France in 1794, the French revolutionaries rushed to abolish the symbols of the Ancien Régime and the pillory was demolished. A few years later, around 1826, Baron Jean-François de Vinck de deux Orp (1774-1827), nephew of the builder of the castle, had the restored elements of the pillory rebuilt on his estate, more specifically in the central part of the meadow below the castle.

Whatever the future brings, the fact remains that the castle domain is very beautiful to walk in. Tip the glaze walk of Visit Vlaams-Brabant (https://www.visitvlaamsbrabant.be/wandelen/vind-een-wandeling/vlakwandeling)

Always very pleasant to walk/run in this beautiful park

Kasteel Binderveld is currently for sale, although you can't see it from the outside. You'll have to ask the price yourself if you're looking for "absolute peace and refined luxury in breathtaking surroundings" and still have a sock full of money under your bed somewhere. https://www.luxevastgoed.be/nl/pand/19807360159/landhuis-binderveld The VRT also paid attention to the sale: https://www.vrt.be/vrtnws/nl/2024/10/07/kasteel-van-binderveld-in-nieuwerkerken-staat-te-koop/

Motorists and cyclists who have passed along the road in front of the castle entrance have undoubtedly already seen the vineyard. That is part of the castle that is referred to here as "Wijnslot Byrleveldt". The vineyard was planted in 2019 and covers 1.5 hectares with 4500 special chardonnay vines. The wine from Wijnslot Byrleveldt is given the name 1661, referring to the year the gatehouse was built. Pressing the grapes, vinification, storage and bottling takes place on the estate. According to a winemaker from the Maas region who was also there, it is a wine that is certainly worth a try.

Binderveld Castle was the seat of a fief of the Counts of Loon. The first mention is in 1135 when Count Arnold van Loon and Olderick van Bilrevelt act as witnesses to the foundation of the Averbode Abbey. The fortified castle, surrounded by wide moats, has been inhabited by prominent families since 1250: from 1251 to 1371 the Van Montenaken family, in the 15th century the Van Hamal family, from 1525 the Van Grevenbroek family. Through a marriage, Hiëronymus de Copis comes to live there. He has the castle completely rebuilt (1635-1653). In 1637 it is severely ravaged by Dutch troops. In 1654 the troops of the Duke of Lorraine take the castle. In 1661 the watchtower is added and in 1681 the spire. In 1728, Joseph Le Roy-Coloma rebuilt the castle as it is today. The date stone with their coat of arms, above the door of the house, is a reminder of the reconstruction. In 1826, the controversial lord of the castle Joseph de Succa sold the castle to Joseph de Schrijnmakers. From 1903 onwards, it was sold several times and served as an agricultural business. A thorough renovation and restoration in 2015 turned this castle back into a moated castle: the house, the gardens and the lawn are all completely surrounded by water.

Coincidentally, the current owners were there and they were just busy harvesting the grapes (see other tip).

The future of the castle is not so clear. In more recent times it was a WZC and also fell into disrepair for about a decade. In August 2023 it was announced that it would become a party hall, which was supposed to open by the summer of 2024. But that clearly did not happen. Maybe later (there were some tools)? Or does the municipality have to drag another future out of the waiting list with other partners such as those on the mentioned site or on https://www.facebook.com/kasteelvanzuurbemde/ where nothing has been posted since the end of 2023 after the announcement of a summer opening in 2024?
