Featured above is just a minor selction of Norwegian Manors
Although there are far more very decent Manors in Norway to choose from, these days the majority of the Norwegian Nobility for one reason or another seem to prefer somewhat more humble abodes. Either way, ownership and up-keep of Manorial Estates have never been a requirement for the Nobility of Norway, nor is it a requirement for membership in RIDDERHUSET. On the contrary,
we are rather sympathetic to the idea of residing in abodes which require slightly less time: - to mowing the lawns.
