Herlegem Castle is a castle on Herlegemstraat in Kruishoutem (Kruisem) along the Zaubeek on the border with Waregem.

The castle estate consists of moats around the separately moated castle with an access bridge to the south, a courtyard of honor with U-shaped service buildings, a spacious rectangular moated vegetable garden, and an orchard.
