Former buildings of brewery Eylenbosch, Historic brewery in Schepdaal, Belgium
The former brewery buildings form an industrial complex in Schepdaal with production areas, storage facilities, and a distinctive tower dating to 1932. The site showcases traditional Belgian industrial construction from the early 20th century with a central courtyard layout.
The brewery was founded in 1851 and relocated to its current Schepdaal location in 1894, where it focused on Lambic beer production. Operations continued for more than a century until the site closed in 1991.
The complex once served as a hub for local employment and community identity in Schepdaal. Today the buildings stand as reminders of the region's industrial heritage and traditional beer-making practices.
The buildings are not currently open to the public as they undergo residential conversion work. You can view the exterior structures and overall architectural character of the complex from the surrounding area.
After closing in 1991, the site sat largely unused for decades before a revival effort began using the original spring water source. This new chapter reconnects the location to its brewing heritage through renewed production methods.
