History

The house of van der Noot is divided in 7 families and branches, the most known is the branch of the Barons of Carloo, Baron of Schoonhoven and Marquess of Assche.[3] The title Count van der Noot was created for Charles Bonventura, 1st Count van der Noot, he was the third son of Roger Wauthier, Baron of Carloo. His uncle was Philips Erard van der Noot, bishop of Ghent. He was the author of all counts van der Noot, who have lived ever since. His son Jean Antoine made a powerful alliance with Marie Josepha Taye, and his male heirs inherited the title of Marquess of Assche. the Since then the title passed from generation to generation in the House of van der Noot. Today all members of the family bear the title count or countess van der Noot, the head of the family is the current Marquess of Assche.

In 1816 the family obtained the rank of Count van der Noot for all members. Theodore van der Noot, 8th Marquess of Assche had a luxurious palace built by Alphonse Balat in Brussels, today this palace is the seat of the Council of State. Theodore was considered one of the richest noblemen of the kingdom, possessing several estates including the Chateau des Amerois.
