Hevringholm, Manor house in Midtjylland, Denmark
Hevringholm is a manor house in Midtjylland situated near Randers Fjord, marked by 19th-century architectural features. A side wing was added in 1879, and today the structure sits at the center of extensive agricultural and forestry lands.
The estate began in the 14th century under the Rosenkrantz family, remaining theirs until the early 1600s. Eske Brock then became the owner and brought a new chapter to the property.
The name Hevringholm comes from the Danish heyrings settlement combined with holm, meaning an island or enclosed land. Visitors can see how the manor sits within the rural landscape and understand its role in the region's life.
The estate is located in Norddjurs municipality at Hevringholmvej 10, surrounded by agricultural land and forests. Keep in mind that this is a private property, so access may be limited or require prior arrangement.
Census records from 1834 show details of household life when owner Mogens Christjan Kjeldsen and his family lived at the estate alongside household staff. These records offer a rare glimpse into how a Danish manor operated during that period.
