Kwabeek Castle, Manor house in Vertrijk, Belgium.

The stone castle stands along the Velpe River, featuring a neoclassical design with symmetrical windows and a central entrance flanked by columns.

Built in 1718 as a fief of the Duchy of Brabant, the castle underwent transformations from a tower complex into an elaborate residence through centuries.

Multiple noble families, including the Lords of Wesemael and the Goupy family, shaped the development of this estate over generations.

The municipality of Boutersem acquired the castle in 1980, converting it into the town hall that serves administrative functions for local residents.

An eastern plane tree from 1810, planted using the bundelbomen technique, stands as one of the thickest specimens in Belgium.
