History+

Månstorp, originally known as Mogenstrup, was an important manor house owned by the Danish Hack family. The estate changed hands multiple times, later passing to the Bille family. Another figure who owned Månstorp was Admiral Gustav Otto Stenbock. A decisive event in the manor's history was its occupation and destruction by Swedish troops in 1678, during the Nordic War of 1674 to 1679. After this destruction, Månstorp was not rebuilt and remained as a ruin.
