Odden Hovedgård, Art museum and manor house in Hjørring Municipality, Denmark
Odden Hovedgård is an art museum and manor house in Hjørring Municipality, combining two late Gothic corner structures from the 15th century. The complex includes a single-story timber-framed wing and displays paintings and sculptures within its historical setting.
The estate originated in the 15th century when the Lunge family built the east and south wings during the early 1500s. The property evolved over subsequent centuries into the manor house that now serves as a museum.
The museum displays works by Danish artist J.F. Willumsen and provides insight into regional artistic expression from that era. The collection allows visitors to see how this artist shaped contemporary visual culture in Northern Denmark.
The site is most easily visited during the warmer months when the manor opens its doors to visitors. Plan time to explore both the art collection and the historical rooms throughout the building.
The property includes guest quarters in the Kavalerfløjen, allowing visitors to stay overnight within the manor grounds. This option lets guests experience life at the estate beyond a single day visit.
