Castle of Schoten, Medieval castle in Schoten, Belgium

The Castle of Schoten sits on water-encircled grounds with a falcon tower and farm barn, forming part of an expansive public park complex.

The construction of the present castle structure began in 1548 under the Van Brecht family from Breda and reached completion in 1611.

The municipality transformed the castle into a cultural center in 1955, following its purchase from the Ullens de Schooten family in 1951.

Visitors can locate the Castle of Schoten at Kasteeldreef 61 in Schoten, with the nearby Riddershoeve restaurant offering dining options.

The architectural design combines neo-Flemish Renaissance elements with traditional brick and sandstone materials, similar to Castle Bouvigne in Breda.
