Built
13th century

Heers Castle was built in the 13th century. Of its many owners, among the most notorious was Raes van Heers, who was defeated and driven into exile by Charles the Bold at the Battle of Brustem in 1467.
The castle, and the town of Heers, were laid waste by Charles's troops, although the castle was eventually repaired after Raes' death by his widow. The castle has now again fallen into a derelict state.
