Hunseby is a village located some 3 km (1.9 mi) north of Maribo on the Danish island of Lolland.

[3] From Romanesque inscriptions in the stonework supporting an old portal, it appears the church must have existed in the middle of the 12th century.

[4] In 1879, Karen Knuth built a number of so-called free houses to accommodate servants and members of staff who had worked at Knuthenborg.

[3] Dating at least from the middle of the 12th century, Hunseby Church has a Romanesque chancel and nave and a Gothic tower.

Many of the 300,000 visitors to Knuthenborg Safari Park travel through the community, sometimes admiring the small English-looking houses built by the estate in former times.
