Lynderupgård

Lynderupgård consists of three wings built on a medieval moated site, with green-painted half-timbered walls and a two-story main building featuring a portico.

The Bishop of Viborg owned Lynderupgård until 1536, when it transferred to Crown ownership after being burned during the Count's Feud by Skipper Clement's peasant army.

The manor features architectural elements typical of Danish nobility, including wooden corbels supporting the upper floor and traditional half-timbered construction methods from the 1500s.

The estate encompasses 491 hectares of land and remains private property, with visitors limited to viewing the structure from the road leading to Hjarbæk Fjord.

The courtyard contains Denmark's earliest representations of Native Americans in the form of four cast-bronze heads on a wooden fountain, created around 1600.
