General information about The Chalet
On Saturday, April 1, 2023, the Domain "De Chalet" was officially opened: it is a park with mansion located in the center of the municipality of Kemmel. It was bought by the Province of West Flanders from the noble family Geelhand de Merxem at the end of 2022. It is an extension of the Provinciedomein Kemmelberg. This made the total domain about 190 hectares in size.
So at the center is ... a chalet, actually a country house. The original Swedish chalet disappeared with World War I. A new country house was erected after the war. Notice the Swedish colors blue/yellow. Immediately reminds you of the Swedish multinational IKEA 😉.
Some photos of this estate and the mansion designed by architect Jacques Dumont can be found in the photo section below.
