Description
In 1856 Zealand's
first "højskole" - literally "high school", a place for the
education and betterment of adults - was founded by famous priest
and poet Niels Frederik Severin Grundtvig, for money he received at
his 70th birthday in 1853. The school opened outside the city, in
what is now the borderline between the city districts of Nørrebro
and Østerbro, and it was named after Grundtvig's second wife, Marie
Toft: Marielyst ("Marie's Joy"). The first principal was
candidatus theologiæ Carl Joachim Brandt, who also succeeded
Grundtvig as parish priest at Vartov after his death.
In 1890 the school was moved to Lyngby north of Copenhagen, and it relocated again in 1937 to the vicinity of Hillerød in Northern Zealand where it was joined with Frederiksborg Højskole, which was founded in 1895 by Holger Begtrup, who published some of Grundtvig's works post-mortem. The school is no longer known as Marielyst but rather Frederiksborg or Grundtvigs Højskole.
In 1953 Marielyst was demolished. On the site today is a small monument and a transformer station.

Tak for op- levelse/lysning, har været forbi utallelige gange, uden at vide hvad der har ligget før i tiden.
Har ofte kigget fascineret på de gamle (før 1900) kort på kms's side, og tænkt over hvor meget der har ændret sig.
Godt hint, der er en hjælp og ikke en løsning.
TNLNSL, Thomas
