Hesselagergård, Renaissance manor house in Svendborg Municipality, Denmark.

The three-story red brick manor features two towers, round gables, and a granite base surrounded by a moat dating from 1538.

Johan Friis, chancellor to King Christian III, commissioned architect Martin Bussert to construct Hesselagergård between 1538 and 1550 as his residence.

The Deer Room contains a remarkable frieze from 1550 depicting deer, landscapes, towns, and human figures created by Jacob Brinck.

The manor, owned by the Blixen-Finecke family since 1904, maintains regular opening hours for visitors interested in Renaissance architecture.

The watchman's passage at the top of the building includes defensive features like machicolation, combining military function with Renaissance design.
