Tøyen hovedgård
Oslo, Norway, Norway
Tøyen hovedgård in Oslo, Norway, is one of the city's former grand estates, originally church land owned by Nonneseter Abbey until the Reformation. Leased in 1620 and bought in 1640 by Norway's Chancellor Jens Bjelke, it became an aristocratic seat under his son Jørgen, who likely built the current main house in 1679 after a fire, making it Oslo's oldest surviving timber building now located in the University of Oslo's Botanical Garden. Passing through owners like magistrate Christian Stockfleth in 1695 and later families who added features like a mansard roof, it served as farmland and professor allotments before becoming part of the Natural History Museum.
