brief
history of Lungholm Estate The first Estate and Mansion on the present premises was built in 1434 and named Olstrupgård – and under the governance of the much larger Krænkerup Estate - with a modest presence in the local |
|
community
- until the legendary nobleman Palle Rosenkrantz
acquired the Krænkerup Estate 200 years later. Palle Rosenkrantz
expanded the acres of land and built a totally new property
in 1639 that was nearly identical with the
present Lungholm Estate. The two west- and east wings buildings
are still in daily function and a part of the exciting Lungholm
property. After some unstable years the Danish Prime
Minister Christian Ditlev Reventlow took possession
of the many estate houses and properties that was congregated
under the Christiansborg County of 1729 and
was given permission by the King to sell Lungholm Estate to
the wealthy Baron Abraham Lehn in 1784
– who decided to convert his many properties into one
"Entailed Estate". |

Baronial Bertouch-Lehn Family and Estate owners Before Baron Abraham Lehn died - his last will was yo give the entire Lundholm Estate to his grandson Poul Godske Bertouch. In 1819 the entailed estate Lungholm was elevated to the status of |
| barony and the young entitle Baron selected Bertouch-Lehn as the future generic family name. The next generation of the Bertouch-Lehn family rebuilt the Mansion of Lungholm 1853-56 in gothic style with crow-stepped gable and created the park area in typical English landscaped style – which included serpentine lakes - winding drives - and clumps of trees in lawns that reached from the wooded distance right to the Manor house. In 1905 a huge tower was erected and connected to the Lungholm mansion – but was later dismantled in 1952. A thorough but careful renovation of the entire Lungholm Estate began in 2006 and was completed in 2009 – with a total refurnish and decoration of the interior too. The objective was to create a resort with conference and recreation facilities as well as a wellness centre – but last and not least to keep the preserved buildings and there architectural appearances as original as possible. The Baron Bertouch-Lehn will tell you much more about the exciting and captivating history of the Lungholm Estate upon arrival and during the fascinating tour of the entire property – and the pretty 18th century English landscaped park and gardens areas. |
