History
To process
Zeeberg Brewery was founded in 1861 by beer merchant August Van der Schueren.
In 1936, Burny Frères Brewery merged with Zeeberg Brewery.
The brewery ceased operations in 1975 . The buildings were almost completely demolished and the sites occupied by the glucose factory Amylum (now Tereos Starch & Sweeteners Belgium). The vacant art deco warehouse ( see photo) disappeared before the widening of the Zeeberg Bridge over the Dender.
The word "Zeeberg" can still be found on a facade on the Dender side of the Tereos sit |
