Radhadesh is a spiritual community founded in 1979 and the main center for the International Society for Krishna Consciousness (ISKCON) in the Benelux. It is based in the Château de Petite Somme – a 19th century castle in the Belgian Ardennes. There are around 100 people who live in the community. The new residents have thoroughly restored the castle and transformed it into a true spiritual oasis where you can explore the colorful culture of the Indian traditions. Radhadesh has beautiful Deities. The temple’s main Deities (Sri Sri Radha-Gopinatha) stands on an Indian style marble altar built in 1986. According to tradition the altar is decorated daily with fresh flowers. One of the main goals of Vaishnavism is to develop a personal relationship with God. This can be achieved by practicing Bhakti Yoga and meditation (chanting of the Hare Krishna Maha Mantra on a daily basis). With this in mind, the Deity of the Lord is worshiped daily in the temple. But the castle also offers other facilities such as a vegetarian Restaurant and Cafeteria, a Guest house, an Indian store, daily Tours of the castle, a nice trail on the wooded estate, a traditional Bakery and a Playground for children. Moreover Radhadesh is a vibrant community where many retreats, courses and cultural festivals are held.
