Pallisbjerg, Manor house in Holstebro Municipality, Denmark
Pallisbjerg is a manor house in Holstebro Municipality, Denmark, located near Staby close to the Nissum Fjord. The current main building, made of brick with a steep roof and large windows, was completed in 1898 and was designed by architect H. C. Amberg.
The land on which Pallisbjerg stands belonged to the church in the Middle Ages before the crown took it over in the 1500s. The name may come from a land judge called Palle Juel, who bought the estate in 1560, after which it passed through several noble families over the centuries.
Pallisbjerg sits in a landscape typical of this part of Denmark, with flat fields, old trees, and small woods surrounding the main house. The estate feels closely tied to the rural life of the region, where farming has long shaped the land and the communities around it.
Pallisbjerg is in a rural area of Holstebro Municipality and is easiest to reach by car. Since it is in private hands, it is worth checking access conditions before planning a visit.
The main building was planned as a gift for Christian Benzon Hoppe and his wife's silver wedding in 1898, but she died before it was finished. In the 1980s the buildings fell into disrepair and demolition was discussed, but since 1997 they have been protected and returned to private ownership.
