Hvedholm Castle was later returned to the Brahe family, who were considered for generations the rightful rulers of the castle and surrounding villages.
The family was served by the nearby Horne Church.
Today, the castle is the production place of the Danish TV-series Forræder.
The hotel is part of the chain Danske Slotshoteller.
