Lindholm is a manor house and estate located in Lejre Municipality, between Roskilde and Yølløse, some 30 kilometres west of Copenhagen, Denmark. It has been owned by members of the von Plassen family since 1728 and is now part of the Londholm-Selsø estate.. Lindholm's home farm (avlsgård) is operated under the name Farm of Ideas in collaboration with the chef Christian Puglisi. It is used as a venue for various gastronomy and sustainability related events and delivers fresh produce for his restaurants in Copenhagen. History Origins Lindholm is first mentioned in 1330 when it was pledged by Johannes Hviding to St. Clare's Priory in Roskilde. In the 15th century, Lindholm consisted of two farms which belonged to Our Lady's Abbey. The abbey was dissolved after the Reformation in 1536 and all its land was confiscated by the Crown. In circa 1570, the Crown seems to have merged the two farms in Lindholm and ten tenant farms into a fief. It was later incorporated in the larger fief of Roskildegaard, Changing owners, 1616–1728 In 1616, Lindholm was acquired by Breide Rantzau in exchange for other land. He placed it under the much larger Svanholm estate. After Breide Rantzau's death in 1618, Lindholm was endowed to his sdaughter Sophie Rantzau and son-in-law Hans Lindenov Lindholm. In 1633, Lindholm was acquired by Christen Friis in exchange for other land. He expanded Lindholm into a manor of considerable size, both by increasing the land under the manor and by placing more tenant farms under it. In connection with the introduction of absolute monarchy in 1660, it became possible for people outside the nobility to own manors. Hans Zoëga, a professor at the University of Copenhagen, acquired Lindholm in 1664 but sold it to his colleague Rasmus Bartholin later that same year. Ole Rømer, his son-in-law, was for a while a co-owner of the estate. Gothard Bream, who acquired the estate Lindholm in 1690, expanded the estate with more land. His widow, Anne Cathrine Wedelmann, married Severin Wildsch. Anne Cathrine Wedelmann's heirs sold the estate after her death. Plessen family The new owner was Christian Ludvig Scheel von Plessen. He created a fine new garden at the site. By testament, Plessen created a Fideikommis from the estate with the effect that it could neither be sold or divided between heirs. AfterChristian Ludvig Scheel von Plessen's death in 1752, Selsø and Lindholm were handed down to
