Kasteel van Moerkerke, Medieval castle in Moerkerke, Belgium.

The castle stands on a moated estate of three hectares, featuring multiple ceremonial rooms adorned with historical coats of arms and French fireplaces.

Built during the Middle Ages, the castle underwent major transformations in the 16th and 18th centuries, with a substantial reconstruction in 1908.

The main hall preserves commemorative plaques and heraldic symbols from 1716, documenting the heritage of Pierre de la Villette and other noble residents.

The castle functions as an event venue with six banquet halls, managed by hosts Mieke and Mattias who coordinate celebrations and ceremonies.

The kitchen team sources vegetables and herbs directly from the castle gardens to create dishes that complement the historical setting.
