Château de Colmont, 19th-century castle in Tongeren, Belgium
The central section of Colmont Castle features five bays across two stories under a slate mansard roof, with symmetrical brick wings on each side.
The Bellefroid-Van der Meer family commissioned the construction of the current castle between 1840 and 1850 on land granted by Prince-Bishop Johan Theodoor.
The castle represents the architectural preferences of Belgian nobility during the nineteenth century, combining neobaroque elements with residential functionality.
Located along Burchtstraat near the former Kolmont fortress ruins, the castle includes a landscaped park with a pond and decorative fountain.
The central bay distinguishes itself with a prominent risalit crowned by a domed elevation, while the side wings feature ground-floor colonnades.
