Description

"Kasteel Sorghvliedt" is a rococo-style mansion with a park in #Hoboken (Antwerpen). Built from 1745-1750 on 16th-century foundations by the Du Bois family, designed by Jan Pieter van Baurscheit de Jonge, it features a U-shaped layout and ornate west facade with the family's coat of arms. The gardens, also designed by van Baurscheit, were laid out in 1752-1753. A belvedere was added in the early 19th century. The 16-ha estate includes an orangery, gardener's house, chapel, and sculptures, with a beech forest and monumental trees in the south.
