De Koninck Brewery, Protected brewery in Antwerp, Belgium.

De Koninck Brewery produces Belgian beers through traditional methods involving open fermentation and aging processes in oak casks at their Antwerp facilities.

The brewery started in 1833 at a former inn called De Plaisante Hof, near a gallows field, under the initial ownership of Johannes Vervliet.

The signature beer glass, known as bolleke, represents a substantial part of Antwerp's beer culture and remains a symbol in local establishments.

Visitors can participate in weekly Sunday tastings without requiring large group arrangements, making the experience accessible to individual travelers.

A preserved boundary stone at the site, marked with a toll hand, indicates the historical trading privileges of merchants entering Antwerp.
