The earliest reference of Hvidkilde Castle is from 1480 when it was owned by Claus Rønnow. The present Baroque main building consists of three wings around a courtyard. It was originally built in 1550 and enlarged in 1742 by Johan Lehn.
References:The Château du Lude is one of the many great châteaux of the Loire Valley in France. Le Lude is the most northerly château of the Loire Valley and one of the last important historic castles in France, still inhabited by the same family for the last 260 years. The château is testimony to four centuries of French architecture, as a stronghold transformed into an elegant house during the Renaissance and the 18th century. The monument is located in the valley of Le Loir. Its gardens have evolved throughout the centuries.
