History+
The origins of Marienborg trace back to 1745 when it was built for Olfert Fas Fischer, then director of the Asiatisk Kompagni. In 1795, the estate changed hands and was acquired by Chamberlain Johan Frederik Lindencrone. He named the property after his wife, Bolette Marie, whose name has been preserved to this day. In 1934, the lawyer and art collector Christian Ludwig David purchased the manor. In 1960, he bequeathed Marienborg to the Danish state for representative purposes.
