Mørdrup
Mørdrup is a former village and current neighbourhood in the Espergærde district of southern Helsingør, Denmark. Mørdrup has a halt on the Little North railway between Hillerød and Helsingør by way of Fredensborg. History Mørdrup is first mentioned in 1466 as Myrdrup and in 1497 as Myrthorp.

Its land was divided into three sections: Bybjerg Vang, Mellemvang and Strandvang. The nine farms were Ærtebjerggaard, Bybjerggaard, Højagergaard (later Søbækgaard), Kjærsgaard, Toftegaard, Rolighed, Grødemosegaard and Lerbjerggaard. The village later grew with four smallholdings as well as new houses. In 1791, Rolighed, Grødemosegaard and Lerbjerggaard moved out of the village and closer to their fields.

Smallholding
A smallholding or smallholder is a small farm operating under a small-scale agriculture model. Definitions vary widely for what constitutes a smallholder or small-scale farm, including factors such as size, food production technique or technology, involvement of family in labor and economic impact. Smallholdings are usually farms supporting a single family with a mixture of cash crops and subsistence farming. As a country becomes more affluent, smallholdings may not be self-sufficient, but may be valued for the rural lifestyle. As the sustainable food and local food movements grow in affluent countries, some of these smallholdings are gaining increased economic viability. There are an estimated 500 million smallholder farms in developing countries of the world alone, supporting almost two billion people. Small-scale agriculture is often in tension with industrial agriculture, which finds efficiencies by increasing outputs, monoculture, consolidating land under big agricu ...

Esrom Abbey
Esrum Abbey, also Esrom Abbey ( da, Esrum or ), was the second Cistercian monastery founded in Denmark, located near Hillerød in Region Hovedstaden, on the island of Zealand (Sjælland), on the north side of the Esrum Sø (Lake Esrum) near Esbønderup and Græsted. History Monastery Esrum Abbey began as a Benedictine foundation, perhaps in about 1140, and was built near a pre-Christian religious site, later called Esrum Spring, where a small wooden stave chapel may have existed before the abbey was established. The foundation was taken over by the Cistercians in 1151 on the authority of Archbishop Eskil of Lund, and was counted as a daughter house of Clairvaux. Esrum in its turn became in the course of time the mother house of a number of other important Cistercian foundations: Vitskøl Abbey and Sorø Abbey in Denmark; Ryd Abbey, now in Schleswig-Holstein; and Kołbacz Abbey near Szczecin. Monks from Esrum also founded Dargun Abbey in Mecklenburg in 1172, but aba ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Hørsholm () is an urban area on the Øresund coast approximately north of Copenhagen, Denmark. It covers most of Hørsholm Municipality and straddles the borders neighbouring Fredensborg Municipality and Rudersdal Municipality. Hørsholm proper is developed around Hirschholm Palace, which was constructed in the 1730s, but the town has later absorbed several of the nearby communities that are of much older origins.
