Description:
Among Denmark's many protected estates Lynderupgaard has a special status due to its halftimbered manor house. In time the three-winged manor house spans from the 14th to the last half of the previous century - the 16th and 18th centuries most widely represented. Situated in a flat open meadow landscape surronded by its water filled trenches the manor house constitutes an entirety of rare harmony, great architectural and historic value. The restoration was based on thorough building-historical research and has also comprised a protection of the old outer walls, roof structures, and bringing-up of constructions as well room interior including the neatly decorated 16th century raftered ceilings. The restoration has been carried out with respect for the diffeent historic building styles representing the above mentioned construction periods, and today Lynderupgaard represents a 600 years long building tradition.
