Hverringe, Manor house and castle in Kerteminde Municipality, Denmark
Hverringe is a three-winged manor built in 1790 that represents a key example of Danish estate architecture from that era. The building sits on property that today operates as a modern agricultural enterprise focused on grass seed production and manages a nearby beach campground.
An original turreted castle from the 1300s was replaced in the 1500s by a moated structure showing similar design features to Egeskov Castle. The current three-winged building came about 200 years later and continues to define the estate.
The manor shaped its local surroundings through staff dwellings marked with blue post boxes, a detail that remains visible today and reflects the traditional relationship between estates and their communities.
The manor is located in Kerteminde Municipality and can be explored by visitors to the region who may also visit the nearby beach campground. The warmer months offer the most welcoming conditions for exploring the building and its surroundings.
Local traditions speak of former estate lords who ride in golden carriages drawn by four black horses at midnight on New Year's Eve. These stories remain part of the area's local lore and reflect the deep historical ties families held with their land.
