==History==
The park is set in Knuthenborg, previously known as the medieval manor of Årsmarke, which was Denmark's largest private estate. In 1714, it became part of the new county of Knuthenborg. The park has its origins in 1867 when Eggert Christoffer Knuth (1838-1874) built a sturdy wall around his property with stones fished out of the Smålandsfarvandet.〔Heidi Pfeffer and Ove H. Nielsen (ed.), ''Lolland-Falster: historier in landskabet''. 2012, Lolland-Falsters Historiske Samfund, pages 122–123. ISBN 978-87-91059-12-4. .〕 He then hired English landscape architect Edward Milner who, on the basis of plans completed in 1870, laid out a park for his world collection of rare botanical plants as well as the many rhododendrons which are also a great attraction to tourists. There are several hundred species of exotic shrubs and trees.〔〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=History of Knuthenborg )〕 In 1926, the park became protected under a preservation order. An enclosed zoological garden was established in 1950 adjacent to Swan Lake (Svanesøen) with 70 deer.〔 In 1969, Count Adam W. Knuth added the first exotic animals to the park;〔 antelopes, plains zebras and ostriches were the first to be acquired from Kenya followed by white rhinos. It is now a famous zoo of Denmark.
