중세 시대 영주의 저택이 있던 자리에 19세기에 하덜링겐 성이 세워졌습니다. 이 유적지는 일찍부터 지속적인 거주가 이루어졌으며 수세기 동안 비옥한 베름 계곡의 농업 개발과 밀접하게 연관되어 있었습니다. 영주의 저택으로서 이 영지는 거주지 역할을 했을 뿐만 아니라, 전통적인 하스페인지 농업 경관 내에서 주변 지역을 관리하고 구조화하는 경제 중심지 역할도 했습니다. 오늘날 조용한 마을 베름에 위치한 하덜링겐 성은 중세 영주의 저택에서 웅장한 19세기 별장으로 변모한 귀중한 사례를 보여줍니다. 성과 주변 공원 경관은 질서, 조화, 풍경의 아름다움이라는 신고전주의 이상을 인상적으로 보여주며, 하스페인지 유산 내에서 특별한 위치를 차지합니다. 과거에 대해 더 알고 싶으신가요? https://www.burchten-kastelen.be/provincies/limburg/042%20Kasteel%20van%20Hardelingen/Kasteel%20van%20Hardelingen.html 를 클릭하세요.

Scherpenberg Castle is a historic castle located at Dreef 99 in Nerem, a sub-municipality of Tongeren. It is part of Flanders' preserved heritage and forms part of the cultural-historical landscape around the Jeker river and the De Kevie nature reserve. The castle is recognized as a building heritage site due to its long history and architectural value. The current castle building dates largely from the late 16th and 17th centuries, built on the site of an older castle. Remnants of that original castle are still visible in the western substructure. The complex comprises an elongated main building with a gatehouse, two and a half stories high, under a slate hipped roof. Architectural details such as bacon bands and marlstone cornices are typical of the style and period of construction. Above the entrance is a chronogram from 1697 with the coats of arms of the Vaes and Schroots families, who occupied the castle at that time. Over the centuries, the castle changed owners and was associated with various noble families, including the Scarpenbergh, Baest, Hoen, de Limelette, van Brecht, de Berlaymont, Bex, Vaes, Mantels, and Corswarem families. Some parts of the building, such as service buildings, turrets, and outbuildings, also have historical value and display architectural elements from various periods. Scherpenberg Castle is situated in a green and rural setting that invites visitors to walk and explore the historic landscape around Tongeren. It is not always freely accessible to visitors because it is often privately owned and does not function as a public museum, but it remains a recognizable and valuable cultural-historical monument within the region.

Rosmeulen Castle is a historic country house and estate of great architectural and heritage value, located at Neremstraat 229 in Nerem, a sub-municipality of Tongeren. Dating back to the early 20th century, the building represents a unique combination of Neo-Rococo and Art Nouveau architecture, designed for chocolate and gingerbread manufacturer Florent Rosmeulen. Construction of the manor house, originally named La Brise, began around 1911, opposite the Rosmeulen chocolate factory. However, the founder himself never fully occupied the building, partly due to financial difficulties and the impact of the First World War. The building is situated amidst a romantic castle garden in the English landscape style, featuring ponds, lawns, mature trees, walking paths, and a walled vegetable garden, all contributing to the estate's unique atmosphere. The imposing entrance hall features a majestic staircase and stained-glass windows, while the exterior facades are richly ornamented with features such as bay windows, colonnades, and a round tower under a domed roof. During the First and Second World Wars, the castle was used by German and later American troops, respectively, reflecting its strategic location and the building's role during that time. After the war, the manor changed owners several times. Families such as Duesberg-Bossen Blijweert and Riskin lived there, and the Riskin family, in particular, carried out maintenance and renovation work for many years. In mid-2020, the castle was purchased by Dirk and Bie D'haese, who began a thorough restoration to restore the dilapidated building to its former glory. Their goal is not only to preserve the heritage but also to open the castle and park for use by associations and for events, with spaces such as a large hall of over 300 m² available. The castle is included in the Inventory of Immovable Heritage of Flanders for its architectural value, rich ornamentation, and its location in a historic park with a pond. Rosmeulen Castle, together with the former Rosmeulen chocolate factory and the surrounding landscape, forms a recognizable and valuable ensemble in Nerem with ties to the local industrial culture of the early 20th century, the social history of the region, and today's heritage conservation.

The former Rosmeulen chocolate factory in Nerem, a submunicipality of Tongeren (Belgium), is a unique industrial heritage building with a rich history and striking architecture. The building was erected around 1908–1909 by Florent Rosmeulen, a chocolate maker who produced chocolate, cocoa, and gingerbread there. It is one of the few industrial buildings in Limburg built in the Art Nouveau style, with characteristic details such as an impressive stained-glass window above the entrance and decorative references to cocoa and chocolate. The structure is among the first in Belgium to be constructed with a reinforced concrete frame, which was progressive at the time and contributed to its robust industrial appearance. The factory flourished in the first decades of the 20th century but was severely affected by the economic crisis of the 1930s. After reorganizations, the company went bankrupt in 1934, and production ceased. In the decades that followed, the building served various purposes, being used by soldiers during World War II, then by other industrial enterprises such as a textile factory and a tin foundry, and later also for cultural activities. After years of vacancy and decay, the former chocolate factory was repurposed as a residential complex in the mid-2010s. Under the name "De Chocoladefabriek" (The Chocolate Factory), the industrial monument is being preserved and transformed into a residential project with lofts and apartments combined with communal areas and gardens. The impressive Art Nouveau block, with a stained-glass window approximately 6 meters wide, is one of the highlights of the renovation and is one of the largest glass artworks in an industrial context in Flanders. The repurposing of the former chocolate factory has become an example of how historical industrial heritage can be integrated into modern residential spaces. The project was even recognized with a prestigious real estate award for the way the old building was preserved and revitalized. Today, the building not only commemorates the region's industrial history but also forms an architectural and social hub where residential heritage and modern architecture merge, close to the De Kevie nature reserve and the former railway line.

An unusual, beautiful building with many great photo opportunities.

Saint Evermarus is venerated in three places in Europe: in Borth, in Burtscheid near Aachen, and in Rutten, a small municipality belonging to Tongeren in Belgium. According to legend, Evermarus and his seven companions were slain here by the robber chief Hacco. This is said to have happened around the year 700, and his remains were discovered around 960. A small chapel was built on the site. Every year on May 1st, the patron saint's festival of Saint Evermarus is celebrated in Rutten. After a procession through the town, the so-called Martyrs' Play takes place, during which local actors reenact the story of the saint's life and death.
