The Warande is a hill of Diestian iron sandstone in the middle of the city, with a donjon motte and traces of a 14th-century castle. The park was laid out in landscape style around 1880, with the keep motte as a lime arbor as the centerpiece. The park contains archaeological remains, a fence wall, a Drossaard house with a porter's house and a neoclassical mansion (1847-1848) converted into a monumental entrance gate. Acquired by the city in 1939 and has been a public park ever since. The text on the memorial plaque at the entrance to the gate reads as follows: This park, formerly the Castle Hill of the Baanderheren of Diest and later the home of the Princes of Orange-Nassau, was donated to the city of Diest in 1939 by doctor Henri Verstappen. That is why his fellow citizens remember him gratefully. The set has signs of wear from the outdoors and the metal has been treated and rewired at some point in the past.
