History

The owner Marcus Gerhard Hoff Rosenkrone (1823- 1896) started the Home Farm in the 1850ies as a model farm for sheep and horses. The farm proved important for the development of local farming and avl. A school for the local children was founded in 1875. The tutoting was financed by the owner who taught foreign languages, history, physics and geography.

The ladies house was built around 1860 for the widow after a local priest, Karen Unger and her daughters Pauline, Bolette and Nanna. Nanna later married the writer Hans E. Kinck, while the three single women remained in the house under Marcus Gerhard Hoff-Rosenkrone's protction until their deaths. The house was called the ladies house after Karen Unger. Marcus Gerhard and his siblings developed a near relationship with the priest Elias b. Unger at Malmanger, and his daughter Kathinka became the love of Marcus Gerhards life. Sadly Kathink died in 1853, only 18 years old. Marcus Gerhard never found love again after her death. You can read more about Marcus Gerhards accomplishments in the anniversary book from 1996; Marcus Gerhard Hoff-Rosenkrone 1823-1896, Baroniet Rosendal.
