Ter Elst Castle ruins

Highlight • Castle

The castle ruins Ter Elst in Duffel is located right next to the Nete and has a long history dating back to the distant Middle Ages. The castle was built in traditional brick and sandstone architecture with octagonal towers and an access bridge. Unfortunately, the castle was largely destroyed in 1914. Since the 1970s, the ruin and its surroundings have been protected and owned by the municipality of Duffel. For a long time, the site served as a backdrop for socio-cultural events. The picturesque ruin with a moat appeals to the imagination. However, the ruin is in a bad state and therefore urgently needs to be repaired and strengthened.

After the major floods in 1998, the province of Antwerp started looking for solutions. One of the first interventions was the construction of this flooding area on a meadow that the municipality of Sint-Katelijne-Waver made available. Since November 2002, this 1.4 ha area can store a maximum of 18,000 m³ of water. For peak times, when the flood zone offers insufficient relief, a pumping station is also provided to pump the Goorsbosbeek empty more quickly.
