Nordfeld, Manor house in Møn, Denmark.
Nordfeld is a manor house on the island of Møn in Denmark with roots going back to the 1700s. The main building was constructed in 1876 using Gothic Revival style, featuring red brick walls, pointed gables, and decorative details that echo medieval architecture.
The estate was founded in 1774 when the Danish crown sold land on Møn and Jørgen Wichfeld built a new house there. Ownership passed through several hands until the Danneskiold-Samsøe family took over in 1820 and commissioned the current Gothic Revival main residence.
Nordfeld represents the tradition of large estates that formed the heart of Danish rural life for centuries. The property still shows today how landowners and tenant farmers lived within a system that shaped the countryside for generations.
A visit to the estate allows for walks through the grounds with woods, fields, and historic outbuildings such as barns and stables. The quiet location offers direct access to Møn's rural surroundings, where visitors can explore the landscape and the property's architecture at their own pace.
The estate spans over 1,000 hectares and includes forests, fields, and working farms, making it a functioning agricultural operation rather than just a historical building. This scale and working nature show how the family maintained the property as a living, productive place across generations.
