Melby, Halsnæs Municipality

[1] The name Melby is also associated with Melbylejren, a former military installation which is now located in Liseleje-Asserbo, as well as Melby Overdrev, an area of protected heatherlands separating Liseleje and Asserbo Plantations to the east of Liseleje.

[2][3] The site also includes a church barn from the first half of the 16th century which was listed in 1967.

Only about one-quarter of the original barn survives since the rest disappeared when the building was renovated in 1722 after having fallen into despair.

The east wall with the two doors and the south gable date from 1888 when the building was adapted for use as a burial chapel.

The area is grazed by cattle and sheap and offers good views of the surrounding countryside.
