Château de Moulbaix stands in a private 62-hectare wooded park domain in Hainaut's Wallonia region, representing a striking neo-Tudor architectural achievement. Built around 1860 by architect Désiré Limbourg under commission from Marquess Oswald du Chasteler, the castle replaced an earlier medieval fortification with its distinctive brick and limestone construction featuring 344 windows. The expansive grounds were partially landscaped by renowned 19th-century landscape architect Louis Fuchs, creating sophisticated formal gardens. Though the castle suffered significant fire damage in 1889, Limbourg's restoration returned it to prominence. Today Moulbaix Castle remains private property following its 2016 acquisition by the Govaert family and is not open to public visitation.
