Belgium Ten Dorpe Castle
The domain was already mentioned in 1290 as "Hof ten Dorpe". During the revolt of the Netherlands against Spain, the small castle was destroyed by fire in 1583 at the siege of Antwerp.
In the mid-17th century, it was rebuilt as a house of pleasure by the Goubau family. The castle got its current appearance after renovations around 1860. From 1925 it fell into disrepair. The construction of a railway in 1934 caused a large part of the domain to disappear. Castle ten Dorpe was restored in 1977 and refurbished as a residence.
From 2006 to 2009 Castle Hof ten Dorpe was used as "Het Huis Anubis", a castle in a popular Flemish television series for young people.
