Ledreborg Castle was built in 1740 and has remained in the same family for eight generations. Surrounded by woodland and parkland, the estate is still active today, combining farming, forestry and facilities for events.

A glimpse into the past

The castle and park are a notable example of 18th-century architecture and landscape design in Scandinavia. Ledreborg comprises historic buildings, gardens and parkland that have been restored and renewed in keeping with the original Baroque style. Together, they form a distinctive part of Danish cultural history.

The castle houses an extensive collection of paintings and furniture. One of Ledreborg’s most remarkable features – and now something of a rarity in Europe – is that much of the interior still appears much as it did 250 years ago. More than 600 paintings hang closely together on the walls, while furniture, tapestries, figures and other objects remain in the castle’s historic rooms.
