"La Folie" is the name of this U-shaped farm, built around 1630. The buildings were commissioned by André Catulle (see coat of arms on the rear facade of the tower gate), archdeacon and vicar general of the diocese of Tournai. Louis XIV resided there during the Nine Years' War; see the memorial stone in the gatehouse with the inscription: "Dum hoc anno MDCLXVII venit vidit subigit flandriam Ludovicus rex christianissimus bis hac aide vsus est."
