The Venue History
17th to 19th century · Multi-phase château construction: east wing and adjacent farmhouse (17th century); west wing and central tower (19th century)
Construction of the château took place in different phases, starting in the 17th century with the east wing and adjacent farmhouse, and ending in the 19th century with the entire west wing and central tower. A century ago, the estate covered more than 400 hectares. In 2009, the property was purchased by the Dewulf-Lein couple, who carried out extensive renovation work through different phases to restore the château to its current condition.
