Buggenhout is a town and municipality in the province of East Flanders in Belgium. The municipality has over 13,500 inhabitants. The municipality is known for its forest (Buggenhout Forest), the largest state forest in East Flanders with the forest chapel, the geographical center of Flanders, near the tri-province point, the intersection between East Flanders, Antwerp, and Flemish Brabant.
Buggenhout was part of the county of Brabant from the Carolingian era until the eleventh century. From the eleventh century until the end of the eighteenth century, it was part of the Brussels quarter of the Duchy of Brabant. In the Late Middle Ages, a sort of mixed Brabant-Flemish commission had to regularly check the (border) markers there.
The French administratively included Buggenhout in 1796 in the Scheldt department, which was transformed into the province of East Flanders in 1815.
