Kasteel Torenhof

Kasteel Torenhof is a 19th century château in Brasschaat situated within rectangular moats and marked by a gate building erected in 1897. The property features expansive parkland with a pond that defines the estate's character.

The château emerged during the fourth quarter of the 19th century, displaying architectural elements drawn from different historical periods. This mixing of styles reflects the building practices of that era, when older and newer forms were combined together.

The castle served as a filming location for the 2016 movie Miss Peregrine's Home for Peculiar Children, which brought wider attention to the property. This connection to cinema has given the estate a notable place in local awareness.

The property is located at Bredabaan 502-506 and is easy to access; visitors can explore the outdoor areas and observe the building's architectural features. The spacious park grounds provide room for walking and viewing the moats and pond.

The building combines different architectural styles within a single complex, making it an example of the eclectic construction approach of its time. This mixing of styles is visible in both the castle's structure and the design of the surrounding landscape.
