Zoerselhof

Belgium, Belgium

---

Zoerselhof is a historic country estate and small castle complex in the municipality of Zoersel, in the province of Antwerp in northern Belgium, set in a green, semi-rural landscape of fields and woodland that feels quite peaceful despite being not too far from Antwerp city.

The site originated in the late eighteenth century as an abbot’s residence and farm domain for Cistercian monks, and over time developed into a mansion-like property with associated farm buildings, reflecting the long agricultural and religious history of the region.

Today Zoerselhof is noted mainly for its scenic surroundings and heritage character rather than big tourist facilities, attracting walkers and cyclists who pass by the estate and nearby chapels and country lanes as part of routes through the wider Zoersel area and its nature reserves.
