About

Næsbyhoved Skov (Forest)

The approximately 15 ha Næsbyhoved Forest is a beech-clad hill, sandwiched between Kanalvej and Næsbyvej, but this has not always been the case. Once upon a time, when there was water in Naesbyhoved Lake, it was a wooded and about 18 meter high headland, stretching out into the lake. The location with water on three sides made it suitable to defend in times of unrest. Already in the 1200s the monarchy built mounds with deep moats and a castle on top. Næsbyhoved Castle was the residence and large farm of various kings and especially queens.
