It’s wonderfully quiet as you stroll through the woods and fruit orchards of the Velpe Valley. The small village of Zuurbemde is a protected village landscape, with de la Coste Castle on its outskirts. A feudal motte-and-bailey castle is said to have once stood here, later replaced by a farmhouse, until a certain Edmond-Charles de la Coste began construction of the neoclassical castle in 1820.
