Het Zoerselhof

Het Zoerselhof is a historic 18th-century estate in Zoersel, Belgium, built by Bonifatius de Wolf, a provisor of Sint-Bernards Abbey. The property served as both a residence and administrative management center where friars oversaw the abbey's extensive landholdings, reflecting the considerable wealth and influence of the monastery during that period. The estate exemplifies 18th-century institutional architecture and demonstrates the substantial power wielded by the religious community before the French Revolution. Following the Revolution, the property changed hands multiple times through various owners, including the Claes and Segers families. The Zoerselhof represents an important example of Belgium's monastic heritage and pre-Revolutionary aristocratic architecture.
