Skrøbelev Gods, Rudkobing, Denmark

Skrøbelev Gods (Skrøbelev Manor) is a traditional Danish estate dating back to 1669. The name has been changed from 'Skrøbelevgaard' to the current name in 2007. It is located on the island of Langeland in the south of Denmark. The Manor House has recently been renovated and is now being used as a venue for weddings and other celebrations. The estate features a large courtyard, surrounded by the main building, green meadows with its display of strutting peacocks, cascading fountain, moat and the bridge which leads you to the church. The Estate has 6 horse stables and the area is a relatively popular destination for eco-tourism and fishing as the island is a thin strip of land, surrounded by the sea on both sides.

Have been here for gintasting and dinner. We got a guided tour around the Estate the girl told many stories, I remember one about a special tree, and the ghost story which was told after the meal. At the gintasting there were many stories, and not enough knowledge about the gin. The Estate is very nice but nothing spectacular. The main dinning room is beautiful but the menu and the food is not worth the expensive price.

Dining at the restaurant - very nicely arranged dishes and speciality beers. Finer dining in the Rudkøbing area is not possible. Also have a look at their tasting events.

Super menneskevarmt og venligt. Rigtig god, vedkommende og engageret modtagelse med rundvisning og gode værelser. Menuen var velkomponeret, meget vesmagende og elegant. Hyggeligt i den store "riddersal ". Med spøgelseshistorier efter kaffen. Personalet engageret og professionelt. Skrøbeløv Gods får gæsterne til at føle sig hjemme og velkomne. BRAVO. Et virkeligt godt sted at besøge.

Ogrodzieniec Castle Ruins

Ogrodzieniec Castle is a ruined medieval castle originally built in the 14th–15th century by the W³odkowie Sulimczycy family. Established in the early 12th century, during the reign of Boles³aw III Wrymouth, the first stronghold was razed by the Tatars in 1241. In the mid-14th century a new gothic castle was built here to accommodate the Sulimczycy family. Surrounded by three high rocks, the castle was well integrated into the area. The defensive walls were built to close the circuit formed by the rocks, and a narrow opening between two of the rocks served as an entrance.

In 1470 the castle and lands were bought by the wealthy Cracovian townsmen, Ibram and Piotr Salomon. Then, Ogrodzieniec became the property of Jan Feliks Rzeszowski, the rector of Przemy¶l and the canon of Cracow. The owners of the castle about that time were also Jan and Andrzej Rzeszowskis, and later Pilecki and Che³miñski families. In 1523 the castle was bought by Jan Boner.
