Corselitze, Manor house in Falster, Denmark.
Description
Corselitze is a two-story manor house displaying Neoclassical design with nine bays across its white facade, supported by pilasters and topped with a black tile roof. The estate spreads across a large area encompassing farmland, forests, and formal gardens.
History
Major General Johan Frederik Classen commissioned architect Andreas Kirkerup to build the manor between 1775 and 1777 on the foundation of an earlier structure. This construction replaced the previous building and established the estate as it appears today.
Culture
The interior spaces bear the mark of sculptor Johannes Wiedewelt, whose decorative work shapes the elegant character of the rooms. The adjacent English garden with rose collections and white bridges reflects the artistic taste that landscape architect Mansa brought to the design.
Practical
The estate features walking paths and riding trails that allow visitors to explore the surrounding landscape. The well-maintained grounds are managed by Classenske Fideikommis and remain open to visitors as a cultural site.
Did you know?
Within the surrounding Corselitze Forest stands the Valdemar Oak, recognized as Denmark's largest tree, impressing visitors with its remarkable size. The tree remains accessible to visitors via the established paths throughout the property.
