Former seat of the lordship of Kerkom, named after the van Alsteren family, lords of Kerkom from the late 14th century to 1675. Subsequently, the Henrix, Everarts, and de Seroots families, and from 1707 to 1774, the van Schoor family, builders of the classical castle, held this title. In 1889, the current eclectic castle was built northwest of that castle, commissioned by a later heir, Baron F. de Moffart; the classical castle was then demolished, with the exception of the northeast wing and the eastern corner towers. Both buildings are situated within a spacious, wooded park with a pond, east of the church and north of Cicindria and Aalsterstraat; a terrace with two garden pavilions separates the two buildings. The remaining old wing served as the carriage house with servants' quarters. It has two stories under a hipped saddleback roof (artificial slate). It is constructed of brick with limestone used for the frames and cornerstones. Facade overlooking the former state square. To the southwest, the beginning of a former perpendicular wing, finished with reused materials after demolition: arched window with a trapezoidal keystone and a rectangular doorframe with a cornice. The rear facade faces the park, with a projecting section of four bays and two stories under the aforementioned hipped roof; a deeper bay of the same height as the connecting element with the tower. Corner tower of one bay and three stories under a mansard roof (slate) with a small pear spire. Aligning corner blocks. On the southwest side, on the second story, an arched cross window with an anchored trapezoidal keystone; on the third story, a segmental arch window in a flat anchored frame with beveled upper corners and a trapezoidal keystone. To the northwest, a terraced garden with a small, octagonal garden pavilion under a mansard roof (slate) on the two corners, north and west. A Classical building from 1760. Arched limestone windows and doors. Further northwest, the eclectic castle with three-bay, two-story cornice facades under a mansard roof (artificial slate) with hipped dormers and corner turrets. A brick building with abundant use of natural stone for window and door frames, lintels, and borders. Inventory of Immovable Heritage: Kerkom Castle, https://id.erfgoed.net/erfgoedobjecten/84286

The Sint-Martinuskerk in Mettekoven in Heers has been given a beautiful secondary purpose. The municipality decided that in addition to the religious aspect, the church should also be given a different purpose as a community space. To achieve this, the church has undergone a transformation and has almost literally been “cut in two”. In addition to the sacred church section, there is now also a multipurpose space that can be used for meetings and small events. https://www.hln.be/heers/kerk-mettekoven-krijgt-nevenbestemming~aa479f72/ https://www.erfgoedhaspengouw.be/erfgoedwerking/religieus-cultureel-erfgoed/mettekoven/
