Teaming up with
De Planckaerts
Castle renovation in France !

OCTOBER 2020

LURCY-LEVIS - Afix Group and the Planckaert family start a new adventure on Belgian national television VRT.
The Planckaert family takes up an adventurous challenge to turn a neglected castle in France into a beautiful chambre d'hôte. Château Planckaert tells a story about dreams and hope, learning to deal with setbacks, and the inseparable bond within a family.


Eddy Planckaert is chiselled in our collective memory as successful scion of the cycling family from Nevele (B) with numerous victories in Paris-Roubaix, The Tour of Flanders, green jersey in Tour de France, ... but also as father familias in the TV-reality series "De Planckaerts" about 15 years ago on VTM.

Since then, the Planckaert family has really expanded and together they have undertaken many projects. From September 2020, they will return to the national television show on Sunday evening with a docusoap on Eén (VRT).  Now, the new adventures of this creative family will be covered in a 10-part series around the renovation of an old castle in Lurcy-Levis, a small village in the Auvergne region. For this major renovation project, the Planckaerts were looking for a partner who would ensure safe access to the site at height. Afix Group has experience in this kind of work and can quickly and efficiently assemble safe scaffolding in France as well.
