Belgium, Deurne #003 Boterlaerhof Castle

            Boterlaerhof Castle

Boterlaerhof castle dates from the 16th century, around 1525.  In 1626, it was bought by Jonker Dassa, who made it his country house.  
Rubens and Napoleon once stayed at this castle.

In 1907, the castle burned down completely, but was rebuilt the same year.

The castle remained inhabited until 2009.  After that, it was put to other uses.

In 2015, the carelessness of a few teenagers resulted in the castle being destroyed by fire again.  Boterlaerhof Castle rose from its ashes in 2019 and now serves, among other things, as a centre for youth holidays.
-------------------------
Het kasteeltje Boterlaerhof dateert uit de 16e eeuw, omstreeks 1525.  In 1626 werd het aangekocht door Jonker Dassa die er zijn buitenverblijf van maakt.  
Rubens en Napoleon verbleven ooit in dit kasteel.

In 1907 brandde het kasteeltje volledig uit, maar werd nog hetzelfde jaar heropgebouwd.
Tot 2009 bleef het kasteeltje bewoond.  Daarna kreeg het andere bestemmingen.

In 2015 had de onvoorzichtigheid van enkele tieners tot gevolg dat het kasteel terug door een brand werd verwoest.  Kasteel Boterlaerhof herrees in 2019 uit haar as en doet het onder andere dienst als centrum voor jongerenvakanties.
