Soroe Academy has a history dating back to the 12th century when Archbishop Absalon founded a Cistercian Abbey on its grounds. The Academy is in a beautiful parklike setting on the shore of Lake Soroe with huge old trees, weeping birches, rhododendrons, and a marvelous garden of fuchsias. It's a short walk to the town square of Soroe. This is definitely a wonderful place to spend time relaxing.

The Japaneese inspired garden was nice, lots of thing to see, and big. The english/danish garden was a let down. Seemed to bee with little flowers in some of the places and elsewhere under construction. Lots of children as the place also has a lot of activities for them. Not something I would linked with the navn "Birkegaardens gardens", perhaps it should be named Birkegaardens Gardens and playground. Just so you dont get dissapointed as we were.
The prarie garden was great, lots os bees and peranuals.

One of the oldest churches of Denmark. Many fine details and historical graves. The atmosphere is light and the rich sounding organ has experienced dozens of international maestros performing over the years. .

People from Sorø are lucky to have so good a little Museum. I enjoyed especially the russian pictures and the beautiful collection of ikons. the modern art was for me much "déjà vu " but 17/18th century was interesting. So when in Sorø, you should give the place a bit of your time !

It was within walking distance of our apartment, and was open all the time I believe. Round churches are rare, this one is very interesting, and one could climb up inside the tower and see everything at closehand without disturbance from others - it was very quiet.

Et rigtig godt lille museum, med en meget flot opsætning og fin belsyning af montre. Vi havde succes med at invitere familien til en arrangeret rundvisning, alle var begejstrede!

Lynge kirke Sorø, vi skal ikke kunne sige om kirken er åben til hverdag, men da vi var der, havde der lige været begravelse, og graverne var i fuld sving,
30 foto har vi her fra vort besøg og bringer 3, resten findes på http://yesterdaysfoto.dk/
Kirkens ejerforhold: Kirken har hørt under Roskildebiskoppen, men blev 1297 overdraget til Sorø kloster.
Efter den skelsættende reformation blev den af kongen (Christian 5.) i 1687 afstået til herregården Næsbyholm. Dette tilhørsforhold kunne aflæses på krucifiksets tværbjælke, idet det her var meddelt: "Kirken blev malet 1850, da Rønnenkamp var Kirkeejer, Mynster Biskop, Fenger Sogneprest".
1. februar 1925 overgik kirken til selveje og er siden bestyret af menighedsrådet.
Lynge kirke er omgivet af en senmiddelalderlig
kirkegårdsmur, opført af munkesten. Kirkegårdsmuren indrammer den gamle kirkegård undtagen mod nordvest, hvor den tidligere skole, nu graverkontoret, ligger.
Der findes en nu tilmuret præstedør på nordsiden af koret.
Som noget særligt for Lynge kirke er der på korbuen mellem kor og skib optegnet en bisperække og en præsterække.
Optegnelserne er begyndt omkring 1750, og biskoppernes navne er ført tilbage til reformationen, først Sjællands biskopper, siden Roskildebisperne. Præsterækken begynder år 1607, idet det ses, at præsterne virkede i både Lynge og "Broby".

Museum i gammel kro fra 1600-tallet.
Udstilling om Sorø og omegns historie og i 2013 speciel udstilling om bilismen fra 1950 - energikrisen i 1970’erne "Da far fik bil".
Meget hyggelig gård med borde og stole. Havestue og have med planter fra Bursers herbarium fra 1600-tallet, hvor han var apoteker i byen.
Der er mulighed for at spise medbragt mad og sidde fredeligt både, i gården, haven og havestuen ..... en lidt fredelig oase i byen.
Der er gratis WiFi for museets gæster i udstillingen og gården.
Udstillingerne er i mange små rum og kringelkroge med forskellige emner og flere ting man kan prøve eller gøre ... nok mest for børn.
I 2013 er der gratis adgang. Ikke så meget åbent ind til udstillingerne - men nok mere i ferien. Gården og haven er mere åbent - i almindelig arbejdstid.
Et fint og stemningsfuldt sted at opsøge, hvis du er i Sorø.
