Kasteel de Pierpont

Herk-de-Stad, Belgium

Castle de Pierpont is a late-classical 19th-century small castle in the Belgian municipality of Herk-de-Stad, located just outside the center at Pikkeleerstraat 14, in a park area that was cut through in 1843 by the St.-Truidersteenweg. This country house was built in 1813 by tree nurseryman Joannes Godgaaf Hermans (Herk-de-Stad, June 18, 1772 - Herk-de-Stad, June 14, 1856) and is surrounded by a unique collection of exotic trees grafted onto native rootstocks. As universal heir regarding the bare ownership of all his goods, he appointed his great-niece Adèle Françoise Ade.
