Juellund
Juellund is a manor house and estate in Ringsted Municipality, Denmark. It was established by Jens Juel in 1694 but has been part of the Giesegaard estate since 1751. History Juellund was established when Jens Juel purchased and merged the old manors of Jonstrup and Herlufstrup in 1694. It is a typical example of the concentration of land on fewer manors that took place up through the 17th century. Juel belonged to the inner circle around first Christian V and then Frederick IV. He expanded the estate through the acquisition of more land prior to his death in 1700. Juel's widow, For the Krag, married Christian Gyldenløve who sold Juellund to Hans Benzon om 1702. The estate changed hands several times over the next 50 years. In 1751, Juellund was sold to Anna Sophie Schack, one of the largest landowners in the country. She included the estate in stamhuset Giesegaard.stamhuset Giesegaard was dissolved in 1922 as a result of ''lansafløsningsloven''. List of owners * ( -169 ...

Christian V Of Denmark
Christian V (15 April 1646 25 August 1699) was king of Denmark and Norway from 1670 until his death in 1699. Well-regarded by the common people, he was the first king anointed at Frederiksborg Castle chapel as absolute monarch since the decree that institutionalized the supremacy of the king in Denmark-Norway. Christian fortified the absolutist system against the aristocracy by accelerating his father's practice of allowing both Holstein nobles and Danish and Norwegian commoners into state service. As king, he wanted to show his power as absolute monarch through architecture, and dreamed of a Danish Versailles. He was the first to use the 1671 Throne Chair of Denmark, partly made for this purpose. His motto was: ''Pietate et Justitia'' (With piety and justice). Biography Early years Prince Christian was born on 15 April 1646 at Duborg Castle in the city of Flensburg, then located in the Duchy of Schleswig. He was the first legitimate child born to the then Prince Fr ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
