Already in the 10th century there was a water-castle on the actual location, castle which enforced the banks of the Scheldt. This castle has been rebuilt and modified ceveral times throughout its existance and the oldest parts of the actual castle date from 15th and 16th century. In 1778 the castle became property from the VilainXIV family. Several members of this family were burgomaster in Bazel. In 1989 the town of Kruibeke bought the castle. It now serves as a location for exhibitions and culturel events.
