Reinventing a Belgian legend
Celebrate the best of luxury lifestyle in the sublime surroundings of an iconic Belgian castle, totally reinvented for the 21st century. Renud helped the Gregoir Group to sympathetically transform the historic 18th century Castle Diependael with an intuitive restoration project, designed to harmonize the best of heritage and modernity.
Imbued with an inviting, residential-meets-retail ambience, this beautiful Brussels landmark is now the leading European showcase for Rêve by Gregoir, a new lifestyle concept by the Gregoir Group – also developed by Renud, featuring the Camerich range of highly desirable, contemporary furniture – along with our own, stunning new signature GR indoor and outdoor furniture collection. A unique brand partnership with the French legend GEODESIS Parfums plus other luxury lifestyle brands and accessories. All set against the ultra-stylish backdrop of the castle’s skillfully renovated interiors.
Originally built as hunting lodge by Heerlijkheid ter Borght in 1740, Diependael was upgraded by Edgard Fox in 1891 into an elegant estate, with three impressive properties, set in 2 hectares of beautiful water gardens. The castle suffered substantial war damage in 1914, but rose from the ashes to become the renowned home of Chef Noël Neckebroeck’s Michelin-starred restaurant for 32 years.
