Lyngbygård (lit. 'Lyngby Manor') is a manor house and a listed building in Aarhus Municipality, Denmark. The estate is 225 hectares of land situated by Lyngbygård River, 4 km. west of Tilst in Aarhus. The manor building was listed by the Danish Heritage Agency on 9 July 1918. The estate is today family owned and much of the surrounding land has been turned into golf courses under Lyngbygaard Golf. The park is open to the public according to an agreement with the owner and Aarhus Municipality. The area is known from the 14th century when the lands is thought to have belonged to the nunnery Ring by Skanderborg Lake. After the reformation in 1536 the lands were confiscated by the crown, like all other church owned property. In 1579 the lands were taken over by the noble woman Anne Skram and a number of small farms on them were merged to form Lyng-bygård (Lit. Ling-townfarm). The following year Anne Skram married Christian Munk and it is believed they were the ones to build the original farm buildings in 1596. The buildings no longer exist, but traces can be found in the form of an arched basement under the western section of the current main building. More information...
