Uhtna Uchten
Uhtna village appears as early as the Danish Census Book of 1241, and the manor was recorded in 1489. In the 1600s it belonged to the Wrangells, among them Count Fabian von Wrangell, a Spanish field marshal and governor of Brussels. It was later held by the Ungern-Sternbergs, the Wrangells and the Weiss family. The Classicist house was probably built in the first decades of the 1800s.
