The current main building, a [Neo-Renaissance style](/source/Renaissance_Revival_architecture) building with two towers, is from 1872 to 1874. It was listed on the [Danish registry of protected buildings and places](/source/Listed_buildings_in_Guldborgsund_Municipality) in 1985. ## History ### Early history In the 13th century Orebygaard belonged to the crown, It seems to have played an important role in the defence of the coast against the Vens. The first known private owner was Sivert Lauridsen, a nobleman, who owned the estate from 1315 to 1316.[1] Some sources mention Erik Sjællandsfar, possibly an illegitimate son of [Christopher II](/source/Christopher_II_of_Denmark) or [Erik Menved](/source/Eric_VI_of_Denmark), but this is contested by other sources.[2] According to the first-mentioned sources, Sjællandsfar's daughter Bodil Eriksdatter brought it into her marriage with Laurids Jensen Blaa. Their sons, Sivert and Oluf Lauridsen Blaa, divided the estate in two. This lasted until the beginning of the 16th century when Mads Eriksen Bølle obtained full ownership of the estate. Bølle supported [Christian II](/source/Christian_II_of_Denmark) during the [Count's Feud](/source/Count's_Feud) and his estate was on several occasions looted by citizens from [Sakskøbing](/source/Saksk%C3%B8bing). His grand daughter, Birgitte Bølle, brought Orebygaard into her marriage with Christoffer Gøye, a son of [Mogens Gøye](/source/Mogens_G%C3%B8ye).[3] They were major landowners but had no children. Orebygaard was therefore passed on to one of Birgitte Bølle's more distant relatives, Axel Ottesen Brahe. whose son sold it to Jakob Ulfeldt in 1618. It was then owned by members of the Ulfeldt family until Sophie Ulfeldt brought it into the Holck family through her marriage to Christian Christopher Holck.[1] ### Lehn family [Poul Abraham Lehn](/source/Poul_Abraham_Lehn) In 1775, Orebygaard was sold in auction to [Poul Abraham Lehn](/source/Poul_Abraham_Lehn). He was already the owner of [Berritzgaard](/source/Berritzgaard) and [Højbygård](/source/H%C3%B8jbyg%C3%A5rd) on Lolland and [Hvidkilde](/source/Hvidkilde_Castle), Nielstrup and Lindskov on [Funen](/source/Funen). In 1784, he also acquired [Lungholm](/source/Lungholm) on Lolland.[4] He was a son of the wealthy [Copenhagen](/source/Copenhagen)-based wine merchant [Abraham Lehn](/source/Abraham_Lehn). [Ole Jørgen Rawert](/source/Ole_J%C3%B8rgen_Rawert): *Orebygaard and Sakskøbing Inlet, 13 August 1820* Orebygaard and Berritsgaard were in 1784 merged into a barony under the name Guldborgland. In 1803, Højbygaard and Lungholm were converted into a *stamhus* under the name Sønderkarle. ### Rosenørn-Lehn family The new main building. When Poul Abraham Lehn died in 1804, Guldborgland was passed on to his grand daughter Christiane Henriette von Barner. She married Otto Ditlev baron Kaas-Lehn on 1 September that same year but he died in 1811. In 1820, she was married for a second time to Henrik Christian Rosenørn. Henrik Christian Rosenørn was shortly thereafter created *[friherre](/source/Freiherr)* under the name Rosenørn-Lehn. Christiane Henriette von Barner took over the management of the estates after her husband's death in 1847. The baronies of Guldborgland waspassed on to her eldest son Otto Ditlev Rosenørn-Lehn When she died in 1860. It was as a result of the *lensafløsningsloven* of 1919 dissolved with effect from 1922.[1] ## Architecture Detail from Orebygaard's altarpiece by Henrik Werner which is now on display in the [National Museum](/source/National_Museum_of_Denmark) in [Copenhagen](/source/Copenhagen) [Hans van Steenwinckel the Elder](/source/Hans_van_Steenwinckel_the_Elder) constructed a new main building for Birgitte Bølle in 1578 to 1587. It was a one-winged, two-storey brick building with a tower in each end. In 1638, it was expanded with a chapel to the southwest. Christiane Henriette von Barners modernized the main building in 1813 to 1815 with assistance of J. Chr. West. The two towers were removed and the exterior adapted to the [Neoclassical](/source/Neoclassical_architecture) style. The building received its current appearance when it was adapted by the architect Petersen in 1872 to 1874. The current [Neo-Renaissance style](/source/Renaissance_Revival_architecture) main building is constructed in red brick with horizontal cement bands. It consists of a long north-south oriented main wing with two short side wings to the east and an octagonal tower at its southwestern corner and a larger, square tower at the northwestern corner.[5] in the 1890s the interior underwent minor alterations in the under supervision of the architect [Axel Berg](/source/Axel_Berg_(architect)).[1] ## List of owners - ( -1315) Kronen - (1315–1316) Sivert Lauridsen - (1333–1336) Sivert Sivertsen - ( -1370) Erik Sjællandsfar - (1370- ) Margrethe Glob, married Sjællandsfar - ( – ) Bodil Eriksdatter, narried Blaa - (1394–1408) Laurids Jensen Blaa - (1408- ) Sivert Lauridsen Blaa - (1408–1456) Oluf Lauridsen Blaa - ( -1535) Anne Sivertsdatter Blaa, narried Bølle - ( -1539) [Mads Eriksen Bølle](/source/Mads_Eriksen_B%C3%B8lle) - ( -1535) [Eiler Eriksen Bølle](https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Eiler_Eriksen_B%C3%B8lle&action=edit&redlink=1) - (1456–1516) Niels Andersen Basse - (1456–1474) Peder Olufsen Blaa - (1456- ) Jørgen Olufsen Blaa - (1456- ) Jacob Olufsen Blaa - (1456–1503) Erik Olufsen Blaa - (1503–1524) Inger Hansdatter Pøiske, narried Blaa - ( – ) Barbara Eriksdatter Blaa, gift Huitfeldt - (1504- ) Otte Clausen Huitfeldt - (1516- ) Christiern Nielsen Dyre - ( -1539) Mads Eriksen Bølle - (1539–1562) Erik Madsen Bølle - (1562) Birgitte Bølle, narried Gøye - (1562–1584) Christoffer Gøye - (1584–1595) Birgitte Bølle, married Gøye - (1595–1616) Axel Ottesen Brahe - (1616–1618) Falk Axelsen Brahe - (1618–1630) Jakob Ulfeldt - (1630–1636) Frantz Ulfeldt - (1636–1657) Flemming Ulfeldt - (1657–1690) Anne Elisabeth von der Groeben, narried Ulfeldt - (1657) Sophie Ulfeldt narried Holck - (1657–1676) Christian Christopher Holck - (1676–1698) Sophie Ulfeldt, narried Holck - (1698–1724) Hilleborg Holck - (1724–1774) Christian Christoffer Holck - (1774–1775) Gustav Frederik Holck-Winterfeldt og Henrik de Flindt - (1775–1804) [Poul Abraham Lehn](/source/Poul_Abraham_Lehn) - (1804) Christiane Henriette von Barner narried 1) Kaas, 2) Rosenørn - (1804–1811) Otto Ditlev Kaas-Lehn - (1811–1820) Christiane Henriette von Barner narried 1) Kaas, 2) Rosenørn - (1820–1847) Henrik Christian Rosenørn-Lehn - (1847–1860) Christiane Henriette von Barner narried 1) Kaas, 2) Rosenørn - (1860–1892) Otto Ditlev Rosenørn-Lehn - (1892–1899) Christian Conrad Sophus Rosenørn-Lehn - (1899–1935) Frederik Marcus Rosenørn-Lehn - (1935–1970) Christian Carl Otto Rosenørn-Lehn - (1970–2001) Michael Rosenørn-Lehn - (2001– ) [Hans Michael Jebsen](/source/Hans_Michael_Jebsen) ## Today The main building and park was in 2001 acquired by the [Hong Kong](/source/Hong_Kong)-based Danish businessman [Hans Michael Jebsen](/source/Hans_Michael_Jebsen). ## References 1. ^ [***a***](#cite_ref-DH_1-0) [***b***](#cite_ref-DH_1-1) [***c***](#cite_ref-DH_1-2) [***d***](#cite_ref-DH_1-3) ["Orebygaard"](https://www.danskeherregaarde.dk/nutid/orebygaard). *danskeherregaarde.dk* (in Danish).
