Aldershvile, Protected ancient monument ruins in Bagsværd, Denmark.
The Aldershvile ruins feature red brick walls with Bornholm sandstone details rising to roof height, including a granite block basement and surrounding walls.
Built in 1782 by architect Joseph Guione for the Danish Postal Services director, the residence burned down in 1909 while owned by the Countess of Bagsværd.
The structure represents late 18th-century Danish manor architecture, designed for aristocratic gatherings and social functions in Copenhagen's suburban landscape.
The ruins stand within a public park near Bagsværd Lake, connected to walking trails and recreational areas in the Gladsaxe Municipality.
A gravestone belonging to Angelica Evans, formerly at Frederiksberg Cemetery, rests in a niche on the northeastern wall of the ruins.
