Lykkesholm

Lykkesholm is a yellow manor house on the island of Funen surrounded by a moat and forests, located approximately 21 kilometers southeast of Odense. The building combines classic Danish architecture with a peaceful setting in the midst of nature.

The site was founded as Magelund in 1329 and received its current name in 1380, before undergoing major renovations between 1784 and 1786. These renovations shaped its appearance and structure, which remain intact today.

The name carries the meaning of happiness and shelter, reflecting its role as a place of refuge and cultural importance in Danish history. This sense of welcome is still present today as visitors move through the rooms and grounds.

The property functions as a hotel with 28 double rooms and offers conference facilities along with views of the moat and forested surroundings. Visitors should note the island location and plan accordingly for arrival and exploration of the area.

The property maintains an active breeding farm while operating as a hospitality venue, creating a rare blend of agricultural heritage and contemporary function. This combination makes it a place where past and present roles coexist in daily operations.
