Bella vista del castello di Wijnendale - Torhout

Source: WillemVandenameele

Description

Vista del castello con fossato di Wijnendale e del suo mastio o torre principale.

Nel 1085 il conte fiammingo Robrecht de Fries costruì qui un forte in legno . Guy van Dampierre , noto per la Battaglia degli speroni d'oro , lo trasformò in pietra . Poi vennero i tempi della gloria e del declino. Alla demolizione ordinata da Napoleone sopravvissero solo tre torri del ponte levatoio .

Nel 1833, la famiglia Mathieu di banchieri di Bruxelles acquistò la foresta e le rovine del castello e fece costruire l' attuale castello . La mattina del 25 maggio 1940 ci fu un drammatico litigio tra Leopoldo III. e i suoi ministri . O l'inizio di quello che sarebbe poi diventato The King's Question.
