Pederstrup

Pederstrup is a historic manor house located 12 km (7.5 mi) north of Nakskov on the Danish island of Lolland.

A vaulted cellar from the mid-16th century is the oldest remaining part of the building which then served as the residence of the king's vassal.

There is an important collection of portraits painted by the most influential artists of the day including Jens Juel, C.A.
