Kasteel van Leefdaal

The castle features a moat, multiple wings, and towers constructed with sandstone accents and Gothic windows on its round tower structure.

First documented in the 12th century as Leven dale, the castle belonged to the de Merodes family from 1410 until 1674 when it transferred to J. de Brouchhoven.

The castle maintains architectural elements from different periods, including a medieval vaulted cellar and a 17th-century chapel in the northeast wing.

Located at Boskee 9-11 in Leefdaal, the castle remains private property and access to its interior spaces requires special permission.

The castle retains its original 15th-century sandstone ground floor of the residential tower and contains a wine cellar from the mid-13th century.
