Soak in the atmosphere of this historic castle, originally built for the powerful Prez family during the 9th century, with its breathtaking grounds.

The Castle was devastated by a great fire in 1966. Architects Henri Lacoste and Jean Opdenberg were put in charge of restoring and adapting it – by dint of major redevelopments – to modern requirements, while preserving its majestic character. They notably built the grandiose spiral staircase leading to the different floors.

Colonster Castle and its surroundings are a remarkable setting for prestigious meetings and receptions. Colonster Park’s current lay-out dates back to the first half of the 19 th century. At that time, owners transformed the park into a then fashionable English-style landscape garden. Besides the creation of free, easier lines, the Castle’s flora was expanded with the discovery and acclimatisation of exotic species, which account for the site’s dendrological interest.
