Oscar O'Neill Oxholm (1809–1871)

Oscar O'Neill Oxholm (28 April 1809 – 15 October 1871) was a Danish military officer, chamberlain and landowner.

[1] His father owned a mansion of the corner of Sankt Annæ Plads and Amaliegade (which was acquired by King Frederick VI in 1826 who put it at the disposal of Prince William of Hesse-Kassel, who lived there until his death in 1867), as well as the St. George Hill, Sally's Fancy, and Hope plantations on Saint Croix.

[2] Oxholm began his career in the Royal Danish Army at the Foot Guards.

Designed by Henrik Steffens Sibbern, the main building was built from 1868 to 1870.

As his eldest son died without issue in 1914, the Rosenfeldt estate passed to his daughter-in-law Sophie, and following her death in 1935, his grandson, Oscar O'Neill Oxholm, who served as the Danish ambassador to China from 1932 to 1939.
