Asserbohus

Asserbohus was a former hotel at Asserbo in Halsnæs Municipality, Denmark.

History

Asserbohus was built by antique dealer Henry Skaanström in 1933 as a luxury hotel, not far from the northern beach of Asserbo.[1] The main building is a total of 2306 m². For the most part, Asserbohus is built from recycled materials, including columns from a large sailing ship.

From 1957 to 1978, Asserbohus was a boarding school. From 1978 Asserbohus has been owned by Tvind, which ran another school between 1978 and 2004. In January 2012 a fire broke out. The buildings were later demolished to make way for the construction of vacation homes. [2] [3]

In 2014, Asserbohus sold for DKK 5.25 million despite it was originally set for sale for DKK 25 million.
