Kasteel van Leefdaal

Bertem, Belgium

The castle of Leefdaal, also "de Liedekerke", is a Renaissance castle with late medieval remains in Leefdaal in the Belgian province of Flemish Brabant. Its origins can be traced back to the lordship of "Leven dale", mentioned in the 12th century. This lordship passed to important families, first to the House of Merode and subsequently to the count family De Brouchoven; in 1775 the De Liedekerke family acquired the castle. Honoré Count de Liedekerke (1781-1861) had the ponds constructed and François Count de Liedekerke (1919-2014) had the facades carefully restored.
