In 1693 the monumental country house (manor house) came in the possession of the patrician familie Bosch. Mathias Bosch was the construction lord of the current bldg. from 1743. The year is carved in the weapon stone above the entrance gate. Other occupants were the family de Heusch de Bombrouck, baron de Favereau and baron de Calwaert. In 1992, the castle and the farm were split up. The farm came in the possession of the family Ph. Dullaers; the castle was bought in 1994, by the artists Gerbrand Volger and Willeke van Tijn, whom several restorations carried out. There is nevertheless still much overdue maintenance.Today (2007),the castle is for sale.
