Neoclassical Architecture
Neoclassical architecture is an architectural style produced by the Neoclassical movement that began in the mid-18th century in Italy and France. It became one of the most prominent architectural styles in the Western world. The prevailing styles of architecture in most of Europe for the previous two centuries, Renaissance architecture and Baroque architecture, already represented partial revivals of the Classical architecture of ancient Rome and (much less) ancient Greek architecture, but the Neoclassical movement aimed to strip away the excesses of Late Baroque and return to a purer and more authentic classical style, adapted to modern purposes. The development of archaeology and published accurate records of surviving classical buildings was crucial in the emergence of Neoclassical architecture. In many countries, there was an initial wave essentially drawing on Roman architecture, followed, from about the start of the 19th century, by a second wave of Greek Revival architec ...

Birkendegård
Birkendegård is a manor house and estate located 6 km east of Kalundborg. The two-storey, Renaissance Revival style main building is from 1954 and was designed by Christian Tybjerg. History Birkendegår is first mentioned in 1363 when it was a fief under Roskiulde Bishopric. It was than called Byrchinge and later referred to as Birkingegaard. The current name is most likely a corruption of the original name. At the Reformation in 1536, Birkendegård was confiscated by the crown along with all other property of the Catholic church. Due to its small sixe, it was placed under Kalundborg Castle. In 1672, Birkendegård was granted to Jørgen Bielke as compensation for his losses during the Second Nordic Wat. Two years later he was granted permission to incorporate the estate as a manor by dissolving all the farms in the surrounding village. This process was however bnot completed until 1700. Jørgen Bielke had been instrumental in protecting Norway against the Swedish army du ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Odsherred
Odsherred is a peninsula in the north-western part of the island Zealand (Sjælland) in Denmark. Odsherred stretches from the Sjællands Odde in the north-west to the now drained Lammefjord in the south, covering an area with a wide range of the most typical Danish landscapes: long sandy beaches, small rolling hills and farming. The peninsula is served by the railway Odsherredsbanen, which runs through the most important towns, including Nykøbing Sjælland, Asnæs and Hørve. History The last part of the name ''herred'' derives from a medieval practice of dividing the country in districts ''herreder'' which created the frame for regional justice and possibly also for recruitment of soldiers to the national army and fleet. They roughly correspond to today's counties. Odsherred was only one out of many of such ''herreder'', since every part of the country was also a part of a ''herred''. After the administrative importance of the ''herreder'' ended in 1919, the once common name b ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
