Kasteel Wolvenhof

Kasteel Wolvenhof is a castle in Izegem featuring neoclassical and neobaroque details such as round windows and ornate entrance decorations. The building sits within a larger provincial domain that also contains another castle and landscaped grounds.

The castle was designed in 1913 by architect Jules Vercoutere for wealthy industrialist Gaspard Vanden Bogaerde. It represents the building style and architectural preferences of early 20th-century Belgium.

The interior rooms display different styles that reflect how wealthy industrial families lived and decorated their homes in that era. Visitors can see how the spaces were arranged and furnished to show the status and taste of the owners.

The castle is managed by the province and available for rent for events and meetings. Visitors should contact the Izegem city administration in advance to arrange tours or inquire about viewing the grounds.

The castle is part of a larger property containing two interconnected parks and another castle arranged in a symmetrical landscape layout. This arrangement reveals how wealthy families designed and used their estates during that period.
