Holmegaard Glass Factory

Holmegaard Glass Factory (Danish: Holmegaards Glasværk), founded in 1825, was a Danish company located just outside Næstved at Holmegaards Mose, Fensmark, and one of Denmark's oldest glassworks. In 1985, it merged with the Royal Porcelain Factory, however in 1995 the packaging part – now called Ardagh Glass Holmegaard – was sold to Ardagh Group, while the art part – as the experience center Holmegaard Entertainment – went bankrupt in 2008. In 2008, the Holmegaard brand was purchased by Rosendahl A/S. In 2010, the glassworks were acquired by Sparekassen Faaborg at an auction. In 2020, the place was reopened as a museum named Holmegaard Værk, as part of Museum Sydøstdanmark. The company is known for its high-quality products of Danish design.
