Sostrup Castle

The castle spans across 20 hectares of land with 239.8 hectares of surrounding farmland and woodland on a rectangular bank west of a meadow.

The estate's first documented mention dates to 1388, while the current main building construction occurred between 1599 and 1606 during the Renaissance period.

The castle served as a Cistercian monastery from 1960 to 2012, during which time the nuns constructed a church southwest of the main building.

The castle's largest room accommodates 60 people, with current owners developing conference facilities, guest rooms, and restaurant services throughout the property.

The castle stands on what was once a seabed connecting Denmark and Sweden, with records showing King Christopher II pawned the property, then called Svorttorp, in 1327.
