Beauvoorde Castle and its collection

Beauvoorde Castle
Source

Beauvoorde Castle, along with the church, forms the core of the village of Wulveringem, but fell into disrepair in the 18th century. In 1875 jonkheer Arthur Merghelynck became owner and restored the buildings to their 17th-century state and laid out the French-English castle park. The interior was decorated with a collection of artwork and furniture that can still be seen in the castle today.
