Description

Formerly called the Castle of Huis te Heemskerk or Zevenbergen. The name was changed in 1612 after it had passed into the ownership of Daniel de Hartain, whose father had been Heere van Marquette [near Bouchain in Henegouwen]. In 1717 it passed into the Rendorp family. It was drastically altered in 1741
