Really lovely castle, a real gem that I wasn't expecting. Really good access around the castle, downstairs decorated and furnished more or less as it would have been hundreds of years ago. Upstairs, a well-organised and well-presented collection of pieces of art and ornaments from the castle that are no longer able to be 'in place'. Also upstairs is a reconstruction of how it would have been when the then King and Queen of Belgium stayed there during the first World War and lots of information about this time. We didn't have a lot of time on our tour but it was really interesting. The toilets were good, there were some by the entrance to the estate and some at the entrance to the castle. The grounds were very picturesque, even though when we were there it was beginning to rain. There's also a maze, which we didn't get time to do, it I can imagine this would entertain children.

the property is wonderful to walk around. it is close to a highway though, so depending where you are in the gardens you hear the cars. the labyrinth was great fun (and quite difficult to get out of!). i found the visit of the castle interesting (lots of facts about the family that used to live there, the war era and how albert I was there) but not per say my cup of tea. be aware that they do not take card, so have cash with you!

More of a Chateau but worth a visit. A family of four for €18...and there is a maze too if keen. The chateau was an important house during WW1 giving respite to the royal houses of Belgium and Britain. King George V would visit to check in on activity. The house is surprisingly of intimate size with lots of good information...a rare insight treat to a royal household of the time.

Loppem is both a beautiful structure as well as a museum & collection inside the building. Very well maintained, this location is well kept for visitors. The art collection inside was a real surprise. Clearly lots of focus on colonialism with objects from all over the world (probably stolen). The exhibits are very quirky & not extremely focused but interesting and worth the visit.

Moor time and details would have made more a enjoyable trip. I would like to begin by stating the fifth star is withheld due to the short time I had to cram this stop into. I believe there was much I missed and more I could have learned. The details abounding in this national treasure were everywhere. I would go again in an moment. There was so very much to see and learn.

Beautiful castle and garden, can be reached by bus from the city centre. Entering the castle grounds is free, and it costs 9 euros to see the inside interior and a small exhibition. People working there are nice and friendly.
