Early history

In the Middle Ages, Snedinge was the name of a village. Snedinge Manor was established in around 1370 from land that previously belonged to the other farms in the village. Both the manor and the village belonged to Roskilde Bishopric. Snedinge was generally managed as part of Vråde Fief but sometimes as is its own fief. [1]

Daa and Grubbe families

Søren Daa served as the bishop's lensmand .His widow Karen Hrubbe kept the fief after his death. After the Eeformation, Snedinge was confiscated by the Crown together with all other property of the Catholic church. Shortly thereafter, Snedinge was acquired by their son Erik Daa as his property. Through his marriage he had also acquired Vollerup. [2]

After Erik Daa's death, just a few years later, in 1539, Snedinge was passed to his son Jørgen daa (doed 1598). Vollerup was initially passed to two younger siblings, Torben and Karen Daa, but was later also acquired by Jørgen Daa. Je later ceded Vollerup to Frederick II in exchange for property in Scania. Jørgen Daa wqas married to Kirsten Jockumsdatter Beck. [2]

After Jørgen Daa's death Snedinge was passed to his son Herluf Trolle Daa, He dissolved the remaining six farms in the village and incorporated the land directly under the manor. He was married to Hilleborg Poulsdatter Skinkel. He died at Snedinge in 1630. Snedinge was then passed to his relative Alexander Rabe von Papenheim. He died just one year later. His widow Regitze Grubbe kept the estate until her death,
