Ørslev Kloster, Medieval manor house in Skive Municipality, Denmark

The Ørslev Kloster stands as a substantial stone structure featuring traditional Nordic architectural elements, with distinctive wings surrounding a central courtyard.

Founded in 1220 as a convent, the building evolved from a religious institution into a manor house following the Protestant Reformation in Denmark.

Since 1969, the manor serves as a dedicated workspace for professionals, academics, authors, and artists seeking focused creative environments.

The manor underwent extensive renovations between 2021 and 2022, resulting in additional rooms and improved facilities for both residents and visitors.

The facility now accommodates 800 annual retreat guests while maintaining public access to its park and forest for 25,000 yearly visitors.
