Lord of Grobbendonkedit
Huis van Aecken
He was born as son of Conrad I Schetz who married in 1485 to Maria Crans di Roscara, daughter of Mathieu Roscara. He lived in Maastricht, and came to Antwerp for financial reasons.[1]
He acquired the Heerlijkheid of Grobbendonk on the 3 Juny[when?] 1545, he paid[clarification needed] it from Philippe, Lord of Jauche. His descendants are known as Schetz de Grobbendonk, when it became a barony in 1602. He married Ida of Rechtergem, daughter of a wealthy calamine trader in Aachen.[2] They had 4 sons, three of them named after the Three wise men.
His fortune was immense, he had a residence called Huis van Aken, heritage (1534) of his father in law. He had the house extended into a small palace where Emperor Charles V visited in 1545. After the death of Erasmus, the house was sold in 1575. The heirs decided to lower the price : Gaspard gifted 500 Ducats reduction to the Jesuits. The final amount paid was 17.000 ducats to the heirs of Erasmus. Next to this house the Jesuits built later the Carolus Borromeuskerk.
His son Gaspard attended the University of Marburg, and studied with Eobanus Hessus.
