Lundbæk

Lundbæk is a two-story manor house with white-painted walls, a high basement, and a red tile roof, located in Aalborg Municipality. The building features cross-divided windows throughout and has served as the Nordjyllands Landbrugsskole agricultural school since 1948.

The estate belonged to Vitskøl Kloster during the Middle Ages and transferred to royal ownership at the Reformation, when Mikkel Tornekrans received it as a gift. The current building dates from 1804 and replaced an earlier Renaissance-era structure.

The main building contains a gentleman's room with tall wooden panels surrounding the fireplace, added during 1920s renovations. This design reflects the formal style that owners of such estates valued for receiving guests and conducting important business.

The building now functions as part of an educational institution and viewing may be limited to the exterior depending on school activities. Visitors should inquire in advance about access times or special visit opportunities since the structure remains actively used for teaching.

A sandstone relief carved with the coat of arms of the Joul-Rysensteen family survives from a Renaissance building that once stood on this site. This carved stone reveals that the location housed prominent families through multiple centuries.
