Krabbesholm, Gothic Revival manor house in Hornsherred, Denmark.
Krabbesholm is a manor house with Gothic features standing within an expansive rural landscape northwest of Copenhagen. The property encompasses open fields, wooded sections, and several tree-lined avenues radiating outward from the main building.
A new owner acquired the property in the mid-1800s and soon after commissioned the construction of the current house with its Gothic style. The estate's present form emerged from this reshaping period.
The landscape here layers different time periods into its physical form. Walking through the grounds, you notice traces of earlier settlements woven into the land itself.
The manor house sits on a quiet road in Kirke Hyllinge and is relatively straightforward to reach by car. The location is best visited during daylight hours to fully experience the outdoor grounds and plantings.
Beyond the manor house, the grounds contain remnants of an earlier settlement that has long been abandoned. These archaeological layers beneath the surface reveal that this area has been inhabited across thousands of years.
