STORY
Join us on a captivating journey as we step into uncharted territory - Denmark! Today, we unravel the mysteries of a breathtaking castle lost to the sands of time.
Constructed in 1822, this awe-inspiring castle emerged from the fusion of two neighboring farms owned by a local count. Its grandeur showcases the Danish Renaissance style, a testament to the historical richness embedded within its walls.
Throughout the ages, this castle exchanged hands numerous times, even gracing the possession of the Crown of Denmark before its very construction. Notable figure Jørgen Laursen was one of its final custodians, but the castle experienced over 20 changes of ownership during its lifetime.
Delving into its interiors, we discovered a treasure trove of stories. From ancient tile stoves to unique antique pieces scattered throughout, our exploration unveiled a hidden library room adorned with books and artifacts, emphasizing the castle's past significance.
The vast expanse of the castle, with rooms and staircases seemingly endless, whispered tales of its former glory. However, the shadow of neglect looms large - the once-majestic structure now bears the scars of time. Some areas cry out for support, and pervasive water damage threatens the very essence of this historic property.
In this video, we invite you to witness the haunting beauty of a forgotten Danish castle before it succumbs to the ravages of time. Journey with us as we peel back the layers of history and shine a light on the fading splendor of a bygone era. 🕰️

It's nice to know, for a change, that there is a foundation trying to keep the castle alive. There is a lot of work to do, but there is hope. It is immediately easier for me to watch the video, a little less sadness in my heart. ❤

Hi Leslie, The organ you showed does not require electricity to play. It is called a pump organ. You sit down facing the keyboard and place both feet on the two foot panels and "pump" the bellows to create the sound. We have been watching your channel from the very start and are very happy you now have a huge Subscriber list. God bless you!

In september 2022 the Danish TV2 news site wrote an artikel about the castle and it has been a longlasting feud with a Russian nun and the trustee who owns the Castle today. Laursen Vig wrote in his will and testament that the nun could stay as long as she wanted, and the Danish Court has acclamed that she is the owner of the Castel.

So many families and so many memories. Imagine the gatherings they would have there back in the olden days before technology. Late night feasts, people dancing in well dressed clothes and gathered all around the fireplace. Reading books near the candlelight, the sounds of laughter filling the night air and so many other memories people have shared since the 1800's. All but lost now just sitting there rotting away while Mother Nature slowly starts to take it over.

That Grand old Lady is sitting majestically in the woods just patiently waiting on her Royal return to the world to announce that she is still alive.What breath taking beauty she will reveal once she is completed. As she is stunning now.

The reason for the sad condition of the castle is quite complex, and revolves around a legal battle that has been going on more or less since 2005. When the previous owner, Jørgen Laursen Vig, died in 2005, the will he left behind included a sentence that has become the key element of the problems - in his will, he said that the Russian orthodox nun Mother Amvrosija should be allowed to live in the castle "for as long as she wanted" The estate of Laursen Vig sold the castle to the current owners, the clause still intact and the nun living there. For many years, it was used for all sorts of cultural arrangements, mainly centered around international peace movements and a desire to bring people together across all religions, working for worldwide understanding. As the years went by, the need for maintenance and restorations kept increasing, and the owners tried to find investors, but it was never quite clear how much of a say the nun actually had about the entire situation, how much of the castle would be under her "jurisdiction" so to speak, and because of this, all potential investors kept backing down, so nothing could be done to improve the condition of the castle. The nun, and her Russian orthodox Church would prefer to have the castle turned into a convent. In 2017, the condition of the castle had deteriorated so much, that it was considered unsafe for public arrangements, and the nun also stopped living there for the same reason. In 2020 urban explorers had started to post hints on Facebook, that the castle was abandoned and some vandals broke in, leading to the owners posting sharp public messages, that it was absolutely NOT abandoned, and this foreced them to install all the surveillance cameras you saw and a big alarm system, and this has saved the castle from further vandalism. The owners sued the nun, trying to get a court ruling that the restoration could go ahead, but they lost the case in 2022, so it remains in this awful limbo. It´s quite ironic, that Laursen Vig´s lifelong ideology of peace and understanding has led to the exact opposite: an international dispute over the future of his old castle.

Hi Bros of Decay, I’m writing this before I actually watch your video. I absolutely love your cinematography, and the total devotion to what you do. You explain things succinctly and at the end of the video we come away with a knowledge of the history of the place and it’s inhabitants. Thank you so much for taking time out of your schedule ( although we know you love doing this) so that we can get an idea of what happened to the place in days gone by. Take care of yourselves, and stay blessed. Sending love and positivity from Wales 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿

I stumbled across the two of you while scrolling KZfaq. I am watching on my TV so I can’t find the one I’m looking at, but it is titled “Abandoned 1700s Fairytale Castle“. I just wanted to say that you guys might be my favorite to walk through these homes with. Also, I like how you dress up to the time periods of the mansions. But I think my favorite is how you research the family from the house and tell stories and not just walk through the house showing rooms. Really enjoyed watching the Noble family in Portugal.

Ceramic Heat Stove information !!!These were a wonderful innovation ! My Mother-in-laws German grandfather was a ceramic stove designer and builder in the family business in the 1800s. There are still experts in this art working in Europe today. The large mass of the fireplace was to insure even radiant heat over many hours. The stoves have many baffles inside to facilitate heating the stone, brick or ceramic mass. Because the door on this one was small, it one was probably designed to burn coal which was considered a higher class fuel. Coal could be made to radiate heat up to 24 hours after the actual burn was done. I lived in a house in Scandinavia that similar stoves .They were amazing but all designed for wood except the one in the party room (ball room) which looked about like the one in this castle. It was designed for coal but in a pinch would burn wood or even saw dust in lean times.

Kachelofen are built so that the smoke doesn't go straight up. It circulates throughout the stove before going out the pipe, so the whole thing gives off more heat. That organ runs on air from a bellows when it's pumped with the feet. But, the leather would be brittle even if the vermin haven't gotten into it. I wonder if that is a shortwave radio. My grandpa had one and we could listen to people talking all around the world.

I have watched you since you first started your videos and have admired the beauty of the old architecture you have given life to once again, thank you. You must know that all the castles you have shown are from a previous civilization before ours, we never built like this even today. The late 1800’s removed our true history, and it was amazing to find. Once the Robber Barons founded themselves, things changed more less like a reset. The people before us were high tech and spiritual. Children were taught as they grew. Any time you find tall ceilings and over the top detailed architectural features, it wasn’t us.😊thanks again, you have help history for a lot of people that watch you.

The secret door can be an access-door to a safe. In an old mansion (maison de maître) at the avenue Louise in Brussels I discovered a safe after a wooden-sculpted door that was egalised-camouflaged with(in) the other interior design and her build-in furniture. And only after watching all very carefully I discovered it was a door with that same hidden secret key ornament. Things seems not always what they suggest to be at first sight... Just a suggestion...

The small organ that you saw was a 'pump' organ, not electric organ . . . you could see the pedals at the bottom, it might have still been playable, they are quite common to see, I have played several. The small cloth handkercheif that you droped had the ten (10) commandments embroidered on it. You do see abandoned castles quite often, the upkeep is expensive and the decendants do not have financial resources or the 'interest' or incentive in keeping up a Castle/ Chateau, the expense can be quite taxing. Thank you, I found it very interesting, I love all things from times past, houses, castles, automobiles, clothing, shoes, fountain pens, etc . . . love it all. Try The Chateau of The Loire Valley in France . . .

I could not agree more! I absolutely Love ❤️ old things ! So often today … people around me ( my own family included!) always say about some of the things I own …“ Why would you or anyone else want that old piece of junk ! I’d just throw that away or get rid of it and get a new one! “ My simple but long winded answer is … Regardless of what You Think … I am of an entirely different opinion! This is Not Junk! This is an item from a better time when true craftsmanship actually meant something! People cared about what they built because their lives and reputation depended on it! The last 10 things that you’ve bought that were made of plastic or fake stone or even crappy quality metal mass manufactured and made cheaply in China 🇨🇳… That is the true “ JUNK! ” that shit won’t last even one tenth as long nor will it Ever be as old as the thing that I own already is right now ! The fact that you happen to be casually dismissing these things as “old useless junk nobody wants” is hilarious to me because I’m sorry to have to explain to you because you just don’t get it … You are in fact 100% wrong! And hopefully someday you will see it but it will probably be too late for you to enjoy these things in your lifetime! verses what you bought thinking it was amazing! It might be… for about 5 years Tops! and then it goes straight into the garbage 🗑️ because nobody cares enough to save or do anything with it to save it ! That is the true meaning of JUNK ! I own lots of really cool 😎 old stuff … here are a few of my Most Prized Possessions ! 😊 there is more but here’s a few of them ! I own a real sword in very good condition from the 1840’s ! 😮 … A book about the Titanic ( an original hardcover 1st edition from 1912 the year it sank! A 100% real voided $100 stock certificate from the International Mercantile and Marine Company ( the company that owned the White Star Line which owned the Titanic, Olympic and Britannic and all of her sister ships ! ) Some old James Bond 1st edition hardcovers from 1958-1964. An old Robert Bateman picture print of the Stamp and the actual stamp set itself all framed together. from about 1988. An old 1969 Dodge D-100 pickup truck with a 318/ 2bbl carb and a 727 aromatic transmission and power steering! ( first year you could get that as an option on on this truck!) 78,000 original miles. It really is an actual real old farm truck 🛻 its entire life ! and it is almost entirely original except for the tires obviously ! About 98%! Almost everything possible wherever I could do it that needed repair are rebuilt Not Replaced! I also kept the original parts to later rebuild them and put them back on if it was even remotely possible ! That old truck is without question the most reliable vehicle I have ever owned by a long shot!! I’m 52 ( the truck is 54! 😄) It’s been mine for about 25 years now and I get offers every single month for all of that time to sell it … a few of them quite good actually… when I was damn near starving to death ☠️ for real 😮 a few times during hard times over the years. ! But that being said … I will Never Sell It! One day shortly before I pass away… ( I have no kids of my own) I will gift it to my nephew and he can do whatever he wants with it or anything else I leave to him ! He’s an incredible kind caring and smart young man that’s been through so many tough things for young guy and he’s still the same great caring and kind young fella he always was before all of that difficult part started in his life . I couldn’t be more proud of Him ❤ and I make damn sure to tell him this almost every time I see him! ( right now saying it to him and making sure he knows…is probably even more important to me than it is to him that I let him know this as he grows up! But later I hope he understands on a deeper level exactly why I did this !) I hope he will keep these things for himself to enjoy them as much as I have… But at that time it will no longer be mine so it’s 100% ok with me whatever he decides… ) But for now I enjoy and love driving it when it’s nice out on the weekends. Any time other than that the Jeep ( 275,000 km on that! 😄) can take the daily pounding and stack up the miles instead. That truck has earned a restful easy life as well as its place in history at my side 😊!

I'm excited to see you in Denmark! My ancestors come from Denmark, Scotland, Ireland, England, Wales, and I love when you show anything from these places. Sadly, it seems the "fashion" right now to cover the beautiful wood & paint everything white! Something I wish would go out of style! All the craftsmanship covered up. My husband does restorations (cabinet maker, carpenter) but sadly it costs a large amount of money with all the regulations (which is needed) and there are not many people who can afford to save them. Many would rather tear down the beautiful homes & build giant new ones that aren't nearly as well built. Thank you for sharing these beautiful castles with us!!!!

Hello 👋🏻 from British Columbia Canada 🇨🇦 Lesley and Danny. I absolutely love your channels and all the amazing adventures you take us all on ! These beautiful abandoned places, castles and even just some of the smaller homes of normal everyday people as well. Obviously the castles are the main draw for how old and impressive they truly are. That being said , I do also really enjoy the old homes of normal people as well when you do them from time to time, they are interesting and important in their own right. Endless respect to the humble way you show your obvious deep love respect to the former peoples lives and even their former possessions as you take us to places straight out of our dreams that most of us will never see any other way … Thank You ! So Much ! I cannot even begin to explain how much I love ❤️ the unbelievable tours of a forgotten time in the past that still exists to this day. A true testament to the hard work, skill and lives of these men that built them ! The architecture , the incredible stone and wood work and also the equally impressive wood cabinets, dressers, bed frames paintings and everything else that’s there , it’s all very important! I love ❤️ how You and Danny ( most excellent camera work by the way ! 😮👍🏻) take the time to get lingering slow shots of all the intimate details of all of these truly incredible feats of craftsmanship that sadly seems to no longer exist nowdays. I also would like to thank you both for explaining everything you learn about these sites and the lives of the people that lived there and the men that built them as well as everyone who lived and worked in these amazing castles and homes. I have worked in construction and steel fabrication most of my adult life. I am currently a maintenance manager of 4 apartment buildings in the city I live in. In many ways I have loved all of these jobs, the things I have been taught by older guys and the work I have done with the awesome guys and even some girls as well. I would love to pack up all my tools and skills move into one of these incredible deteriorating castles and happily spend the rest of my life working completely non rushed with ultimate care in restoring the amazing details of craftsmanship of a time gone by to restore life as much life and beauty as humanly possible to one of these beautiful castles! I would pass away a content and happy old man, knowing I did something truly great for all the right reasons! I would do almost anything to tag along on a few of these adventures with you gentlemen! Massive Thanks to you both .. In a way we all are doing exactly that through your important , interesting and inspirational heartfelt documentation work ! 😊 So many of these places are far too incredible to just be lost forever to time and decay until there is nothing left of these marvels of the people who built and owned them … that is the saddest part of all if it gets that far… 🙂 Thank You 🙏 for all the true passion and effort you put into everything you do ! It is very much appreciated by all of us… the way that you approach all of this as you do it , it really means Everything! 😊

One of the problems with restoring thses old gems, is the fact that over the years, the craftsmen who had the knowledge of working with stone, and plaster, have passed away, without possibly passing on their techniques to a new generation. It is one of the reasons that it costs so much to restore a property like this, is finding someone who has the experience to either make her shine, or not.

Hey Lesley, that is really a beautiful castle, you could explore in Danmark. I enjoyed watching. Also the exterior and the countryside are so breathtaking to see! - Wonderful drone shots! - It's good to hear, that they are trying to renovate the location! - When you were showing a huge room, there was a house organ visible. This instrument is not operated with electricity. Maybe you saw the pedals. They have to be pushed down in an alternate way to provide the internal organ pipes with air, - and then you have to pull these knobbed levers, which are called in german "Register". With these you can vary the quality and intensity of the sound. This house organ is called "Harmonium". That was a great and very enjoyable explore with you and Danny. Wishing you all the best, peace and kindest regards.

At first I have to say great work guys with your videos they are really interessting. From 1957 til 2005 the castle was actually owned by an excentric called Jørgen Laursen Vig. He was a Theologian. At first I was somewhat puzzled about where it could be. Then I realized that I had seen a program on Lauersen Vig and the castle. After having aquired the castle Jørgen Laursen Vig was working on turning it into a convent for ortodoks nuns. The project failed though and in the end the nuns mooved out. Then he died. I think the program was made by Danish Television DR. Quotation from Wikipedia: The film "The Monastery" by Pernille Rose Grønkjær was made over the last seven years of Vig's life, when he converted the dilapidated Hesbjerg Castle into a monastery for the Russian Orthodox Church after long-awaited permission. At the same time, it is a portrait of an eccentric who is passionate about his cause, but who along the way has to recognize that the dream turns out to be more difficult to realize than expected. i certainly hope that the foundation will manage to raise money for an restauration as the castle and its land has a long historie. It seems though like the group behind it is working against time.

How fascinating to see this old building still standing until this time. This should be restored by the Government as this is very valuable part of the country history. Thank you for sharing my dears❤❤❤

This is an absolutely beautiful castle. I am a real history buff and I believe the "Library" was used as a School Room. It was quite often done for private houses and castles and the upper crust of society in these large castles and mansions for their large families. I am the descendent of George D. Widener, and the Elkins mansion Lynnwood Hall that you toured in the USA. We have an organization raising money to restore the mansion as well. For those who don't know, my Great Uncle George & cousin Harry died on the Titanic and their home was Lynnwood Hall. It is deeply troubling to me to watch so many other "explorers" Break Into any place they want without permission because they deem it "ABANDONED" when it IS NOT ABANDONED> only empty of residents at the time. I deeply appreciate that you two boys are different, well-mannered, and truthful. You ask for permission to enter the places you go and treat absolutely everything as if you owned it yourself. The respect you show and give is such a HONORABLE trait and I must say a hearty THANK YOU for all you do. You are NOT included with the hoards of dishonest trespassers that break into places....you are gentlemen, and for that, I say Thank you. As I am getting on in years, I can no longer go on extended travels and can enjoy doing so with you as my "tour guides". It is an honor to watch your videos.
