Castle of Oostkerke

Around 1300, a fortified brick residential tower was built in Oostkerke. By the end of the 14th century, there was a "Lower Courtyard" and an "Upper Courtyard," both surrounded by moats. Baron van der Elst had a dilapidated castle renovated in 1938. The ramparts were excavated again, the stone access bridge restored, and the western wing transformed into an ornate building in Renaissance style. The former foundations of the ring wall and the towers were also raised and serve as decoration and a walking path in the garden, designed by the Dutch landscape architect Mien Ruys.
