The castle and its outbuildings will soon be taken over by companies specializing in the renovation of historical monuments. Les Amis du Château d'En Haut (non-profit organization) specializes in estate rentals, and the proceeds are redistributed to restoration projects (Pineal Project: workshops, ceremonies, product presentations, exhibitions, performances, etc.). This is stated at: www.chateaudebossuit.com When I passed by, the gate on Kasteeldreef was simply open. There was nothing to indicate that the estate was inaccessible. For example, in the garden to the left of the castle, there seemed to be the remains of a pop-up bar or some kind of public event. When I left the estate on the Doorniksesteenweg side, the automatic gate gently opened for me. When I turned around, I saw a sign saying "Private / No Access."

The Castle of Bossuit and the accompanying Orangery are still inhabited by the noble family de Talhouet. The lordship of Bossuit was a fief from the bishopric of Tournai. The lords of Bossuit sold the domain to the Luytens family in 1710. Michiel Maximiliaan Luytens later became Viscount of Bossuit. He renovated the original castle, had a park built and the castle got the four corner towers. The castle is neoclassical, inspired by the French Loire castle construction. The castle is protected as a monument (1995), as a valuable oeuvre of the 18th century Lille architect Lesaffre. The interiors are executed in a neat Louis XVI style with Louis XV elements. We find salons with rococo decoration and a rich library. In the staircase are numerous hunting trophies and several family portraits. The party took place in the Orangery, which was held in the presence of Leopold I, on the occasion of the official opening of the Bossuit-Kortrijk Canal in 1860. The castle park with pond and the castle avenue are protected as a village view. The castle domain is not accessible.
