Kongsdal

Kongsdal is a two-story manor house near Undløse with symmetrical windows and an ordered facade in Danish architectural style. The building displays classical features of estates from that era, designed to serve both residential and land management purposes.

The manor was built in 1710 on land that once belonged to Sorø Abbey, which Bishop Absalon founded in the 12th century. The site thus reflects multiple phases of land use and ownership across this region's history.

The manor reflects the architectural tastes and social standing of Danish landowners who shaped rural life for centuries. Its design elements communicate the wealth and influence of the nobility who inhabited such estates.

The property sits roughly 14 kilometers southwest of Holbæk between Undløse and Mørkøv and remains a private residence. Visitors should respect its private nature and appreciate it from the surrounding area.

The property was originally called Tygestrup and received its current name in 1669 when King Frederick III took it into his possession. This royal connection elevated it to a special noble residence in the region.
