Mothsgården

Mothsgården is a former country retreat in Søllerød in the northern suburbs of Copenhagen, Denmark.

The museum also comprises the Vedbæk Finds, a collection of archeological finds from Vedbæk, now on display in Gammel Holtegård, and the Rudersdal Local Historic Archives in Rudersdal Library.

[2] A memorial plaque on the side of the building facing the village pond commemorates the Norwegian composer Edvard Grieg's composition of his Piano Concerto in A minor during a visit to Mothsgården in the summer of 1868 (Her i Mothsgaarden / komponerede / Edvard Grieg / i sommeren 1868 / koncerten for klaver / og orkester / Søllerød Kommune satte dette minde 1868).

Grieg often visited Denmark, where he had lived from 1863 to 1866 and where his mother had family (Hagerup).

In 1868, the couple returned to Denmark to present their newborn daughter, Alexandra.
