Castle ‘de Viron’ at Dilbeek (Belgium)

In the 14th century a fortification was already built on top of this mound.
In 1863 it was replaced by the present castle in Tudor-style.

The Julian year calendar was integrated into the edifice.
The castle counts 7 staircases, 12 towers, 52 rooms and 365 windows (referring to weekdays, months, weeks and days in the year)
