Broholm Castle is located in the beautiful landscape of South Funen.With its towers, moat, and park, it seems to have stepped straight out of a fairytale.Broholm's history can be dated back to 1326. Over time, the castle changed owners several times, finally coming into the possession of the Sehested family in 1730, to whom it now belongs in the 13th generation.The castle gave its name to a rare Danish dog breed, the Broholmer.Chamberlain N.F.B. Sehested bred this breed until 1850, thus ensuring its spread in Denmark.The castle also gave its name to the apple variety Broholm Æblet, also called Broholm Rosenæble. The mother tree, whose age could be traced back to 1866,
stood in the castle park. Today, several of these apple trees can be found in the park and meadows
around the castle. The small, juicy apples are used, among other things, to make
apple brandy, which is available at the castle.visitfyn.de/fyn/reise-ideen/schloss-broholm
