Reventlow Asylum
By Seeker
The Reventlow Asylum, located in Horslunde on the island of Lolland, Denmark, is a historic half-timbered building constructed in 1824 to serve as a home for elderly women. This charming structure, which showcases unique architectural features such as a half-hipped thatched roof and a curved entrance, was restored in the 1990s and is now a protected site. Visitors can explore its rich history, including its connection to the prominent Reventlow family and the nearby cemetery where Prime Minister D.F. Reventlow is buried. Today, the building serves the local congregation and the grave-digger of Horslunde Church, making it a quaint spot for those interested in Danish heritage and architecture.
