Belgium, Roeselare #001 Rumbeke Castle

            Rumbeke Castle

In the early 16th century, Jacques I de Thiennes had a 15th-century noble farmstead converted into a castle.  The final form of the castle arrived in 1535.

In 1730, the castle of Rumbeke was thoroughly rebuilt.

The counts of Thiennes owned the castle until 1856.  By marriage, it then came into the hands of the de Limburg Stirum family until 1988.  During that period, it was often damaged; by the Beggars, the wars of Louis XIV, the French Revolution, and WWI and II.  During World War II, the castle became the residence of German officers .

Between 1961 and 1964, the castle was renovated.

Begin 16e eeuw liet Jacques I de Thiennes een 15e-eeuwse adellijke hoeve omvormen tot een kasteel.  De uiteindelijke vorm van het kasteel kwam er in 1535.

In 1730 werd het kasteel van Rumbeke grondig verbouwd.

De graven van Thiennes bezat het kasteel tot 1856.  Door huwelijk kwam het toen in handen van de familie de Limburg Stirum tot 1988.  In die periode werd het dikwijls beschadigd; door de geuzen, de oorlogen van Lodewijk XIV, de Franse Revolutie, en WOI en II.  Tijdens de Tweede Wereldoorlog werd het kasteel de residentie van Duitse officieren .

Tussen 1961 en 1964 werd het kasteel gerenoveerd.
