Ter Borcht Castle has a long and eventful history and is deeply intertwined with Meulebeke. The house is the resting place of the lords of Meulebeke. For them, it is more of a summer residence, as they usually find their permanent, comfortable abode in a number of Flemish fortified cities such as Bruges and Ghent. The De Beer family owned this piece of Meulebeke territory for almost 250 years, until 1819. Throughout the nineteenth and twentieth centuries, Ter Borcht was continuously inhabited by members of the upper middle class. The current castle dates from the seventeenth century and was built around an older core. The building consists of two nearly identical wings. The second wing was completed before 1654. In 1859, the Thienpont family began a major renovation of the castle, and the facades were given a classical look. The original brick and natural stone finish disappeared under a thick plaster. Only the early seventeenth-century gate towers still retain their original appearance today. The park, built in the English landscape style (1850-1875), features several old viewpoints: towards the church, the (now vanished) Borchtmolen, and the Chapel of Our Lady of Perpetual Help. In this way, the village and surrounding area do not escape the all-seeing eye of the lord of the castle. Over time, these viewpoints almost completely disappeared. Source: information board on site

Absolutely beautiful area of 44 hectares of forest, with three ponds with remarkable names, of which the largest, the castle pond, is called "'t Zeetje". In the second pond, Ardoyevijver, there is a headland/peninsula with a bench where the view is beautiful and it is quiet to sit. The third pond and surroundings are managed as a nature reserve. On the edge of it there is a birdwatching hut.
