Herregården i Larvik, Manor house in Larvik, Norway.

The timber structure features a symmetrical design with two floors, side wings, and carefully positioned doors and windows throughout the building complex.

Built in 1677, the manor served as the residence of Ulrik Frederik Gyldenløve, the Norwegian Governor General and illegitimate son of King Frederik IV.

The interior maintains period furnishings from the 17th and 18th centuries, displaying the living standards of Norwegian nobility during that time.

The manor operates as part of Vestfold Museene, offering guided tours through the historical rooms and exhibits about local heritage.

The building underwent major renovations in the 1730s to accommodate King Christian VI, including new royal apartments decorated with preserved textiles.
