History
The site dates back to 1385, when it held a homestead called 't Goet Te Boelaar. Noble families later used it as a country residence until 1912, when its private status changed.

The Willem De Meyer monument by sculptor May Claerhout stands within the park and reflects how local residents valued preserving this memorial through periods of change.
