Rodsteenseje is a manor located south of Aarhus, which dates back to the 15th century. After wars with Sweden (1657-1660) Danish noblemen who had owned land in the lost province of Scania was compensated by the Danish crown. The heirs of nobleman Joachim Gersdorff received the small fiefdom of Aakær south of Aarhus, and it was on these lands that admiral Jens Rodsteen established a new manor and named it Rodsteenseje. He also erected a new half-timbered main building in 1681, which still stands today. Over time the building has had changes made to it.
