Kasteel Pietersheim, Protected castle in Lanaken, Belgium.

The neoclassical castle structure stands next to medieval ruins, featuring circular ramparts and remnants of ancient fortifications.

Archaeological evidence reveals the first fortress on this site dates to the late 11th century, with written documentation first appearing in 1227.

The castle serves as an event venue, connecting visitors to Belgian architectural heritage through its preserved medieval and neoclassical elements.

Visitors can explore the castle grounds during operating hours and enjoy the hotel-restaurant located within the neoclassical building.

The castle underwent multiple reconstructions after fires in 1836, 1909, and 1920, leading to its current neoclassical form completed in 1926.
