Næsbyholm is a historic 286-hectare Danish estate in Glumsø, Sjælland, elevated from a medieval peasant farm to manor status through a land exchange with the Bishop of Roskilde. The Renaissance building, commissioned in 1585 by Steen Brahe (brother of astronomer Tycho Brahe) and architect Hans Stenwinkel, features distinctive red brickwork with white chalk stone bands. After devastating fires in 1932 and 1947, the mansion was carefully restored. Today the privately owned estate opens its formal French and English gardens, adorned with sculptures and a bronze bust of scientist H.C. Ørsted, to visitors on select summer days, offering a window into Denmark's aristocratic past.
