Giesegaard

The two-story manor house features white plastered walls, two octagonal towers, and black-glazed tile roofs within a 3,115-hectare estate.

Frederik Giese established the manor in 1683 by merging two farms of Skivede village, with the current main building constructed in 1751 for Countess Anna Sophie Schack.

The estate has maintained traditional Danish land management practices while integrating modern agricultural methods across its farmlands and forest areas.

Visitors can access the park grounds during weekdays between 9:00 AM and 4:00 PM, with the main building serving administrative and residential functions.

The estate produces PEFC-certified timber from its 1,499 hectares of woodland while managing 1,013 hectares of farmland using reduced soil treatment methods.
