Broholm, Manor house in Gudme, Denmark
Broholm is a manor house in Gudme, on the island of Funen in Denmark, now operating as a hotel with rooms and a restaurant on the grounds. Fields, meadows, and woodland surround the main building, giving the property its rural character.
The manor dates to the 14th century and passed through several noble Danish families over the centuries, including the Skeel and Sehested families. Each period of ownership left traces on the buildings and the land that can still be noticed today.
The estate holds a collection of gold objects and other finds unearthed on its own grounds, which visitors can view on site. These pieces date from the Migration Period and show how active this corner of Funen was centuries ago.
The estate is open as a hotel and welcomes both overnight guests and day visitors who want to use the restaurant or explore the grounds. Parking is available on site, and the grounds are easy to walk around.
One of Denmark's largest Migration Period gold hoards was found in the fields around the estate, with objects dated to the 5th and 6th centuries. This discovery made Gudme one of the most studied archaeological areas in the country.
