Het Kasteel Van Ham

If there is one touristic feature in our place, it must be this fine building, build at the end of the 15th century. The Austrian banned emperess Zita lived in it for some time.
The castle had originally four towers. During the second world war, the german army took them away because they were a risk for their airplanes (the actual Brussels airport is just round the corner!)
