History

Skovgården was built in 1820. In 1831 it was acquired by the merchant Hans Puggaard who spent the summers there with his wife Bolette. Their visitors included many leading artists of the Danish Golden Age, including C. W. Eckersberg, Vilhelm Marstrand, Bertel Thorvaldsen, Michael Gottlieb Bindesbøll and Herman Wilhelm Bissen. [1]

After Hans and Bolette Puggaard's daughter Marie married the politician Orla Lehmann in 1844 the estate was also frequented by many of the leading politicians of the time. Lehmann was a key figure in the adoption of the Constitution of Denmark in 1849. As a gift to his children, Pugaard also commissioned the architect Michael Gottlieb Bindesbøll to build another country house in the area. It was named Krathuset for its location in Ordrup Krat.[2]

After Puggaard's death in 1866, Sjovgård was taken over by his grand daughter Margrethe Lehmann together with her husband Gotfred Rode. Tode, a prominent literary historian, created a meetingplace for Grundtvigian and National Liberal opinion leaders. In 1874 he established a folk high school in the building but it closed after his death in 1878.

In 1880. Sjovgård was acqiored byF. V. Hegel , the owner of Gyldendal. He used it as a summer residence together with his son and daughter-in-law Jacob and Julie Hegel. The house remained a meetingplace for Copenhagen's literary establishment until the 1920s. After that it was left empty.

In the 1940, Skovgård was purchased by Hentofte Municipality whose intention was to build a new primary school at the central location in the growing suburb. The house was listed and it was therefore decided to move it to a new located at Krathusvej 36. The house was later refurbished by Mogens Lassen. Skovgårdsskolen

The Skovgård School was inaugurated at the old site in 1951. It was designed by the architects Hans Erling Langkilde and Ib Martin Jensen.

gollark: I passed it on to someone else, and they said it looked like a variant on the "mirai" botnet thing, which was open-sourced by its creators a few years back.
gollark: Those are some of the random strings in it, I don't know if it uses them at all.
gollark: Here's the script it tries to run.
gollark: However, I *did* run `strings` over them, and they contain what looks like obfuscated data of some sort, HTTP request text which seems to be for spreading the exploit to other stuff, and also seemingly random spammy strings which look like edgy teenagers added them.
