About

Bennetgård, the building

From the outside, the whitewashed former farmhouse isn’t all that conspicuous, but the place is historically quite significant all the same. Bennetgård is a rest home for those of Danish decent living abroad, i.e. mainly for those identifying as Danish living in South Schleswig, Germany. Every year, around 150 elderly from South Schleswig visit Bennetgård to enjoy two weeks of fresh air on Danish soil, good food, sing-alongs and socialising in a historical setting. It is a life-affirming tonic.
