Gammel Estrup receives 902,500 DKK for Restoration

Gammel Estrup - the Manor Museum has received 902,500 kr from Shipowner Carsten Brebøl's Public Utility Fund for restoration of a number of rooms on the first floor. The restoration is an important part of the preservation of the Danish cultural heritage which the manors and Gammel Estrup represent. Gammel Estrup - the Manor Museum hopes to be able to open the newly restored rooms as early as 2012. The rooms will be furnished in rococo style and will show the housing culture and life at the manor as it could have been during the last half of the 1700's when Jørgen Count Scheel and Charlotte Louise von Plessen lived at the manor.
