From blossom to harvest through the Borgloon castle landscape

Deposit?

Haspengouw is a fertile region with a rich past. The Romans expelled the Celts and from the third century onwards the monastic orders left their mark on the region. In the Middle Ages, the nobility built grand fortresses and castles. Borgloon became the capital of the County of Loon. In the east the wealth is underground: marl. The exploitation of this stone today results in a gigantic network of underground passages, 300 km long.

Haspengouw is a picturesque, rolling region where you will find unprecedented peace and conviviality. With no fewer than ten castles, extensive wine estates, a hundred thousand fruit trees bursting with fresh fruit, a syrup factory, an abbey, cozy streets and simply beautiful nature, this is pure enjoyment of history in a beautiful landscape.
