Bouchout Castle is a castle in Meise, Flemish Brabant, Belgium, most likely first fortified around 1150 by Wouter van Craaynem at the end of the Grimbergen Wars. Its donjon tower was erected about 1300 by Daniel van Bouchout, and Count Amadeus de Beauffort restored it in 1832 in the neo-Gothic style that gives it its present appearance. It is a protected monument, and it now serves for meetings, lectures and exhibitions.
