Scheelenborg, Manor house in Hindsholm, Denmark.
Scheelenborg is a manor house with a two-story neoclassical building in Hindsholm. The estate today encompasses a large agricultural property with old moats around the main structures and is used for farming and breeding show jumping horses.
The property was originally called Eskebjerg in medieval times and received its present name in 1682 from owner Friedrich von Vietinghoff. The neoclassical main building dates to 1843.
The estate was named after a former owner and served as a center for surrounding villages for centuries. Visitors can see how the manor and its lands shaped life in this region.
The property is located in a flat, agricultural area and is surrounded by land. Visitors should expect a rural setting and prepare for independent exploration of the grounds.
A large area next to the property was originally a shallow lagoon but was transformed into fertile fields over several decades. This land conversion was a major undertaking that permanently reshaped the landscape.
