Our story

A modern international academy

Dalum Academy of Agricultural Business is a part of “Dalum Landbrugsskole”, founded in 1886. The spectacular old buildings were originally erected in the year 1862 by the famous Danish folk high school pioneer Christen Kold. In the years from 1862 until 1886 the buildings housed “Dalum Højskole” (Dalum Folk High School).

 

Some of Christen Kold’s original lecture and meeting rooms are still existing and are used in interaction with the rest of the modern facilities at campus. Today Dalum Landbrugsskole is an international school, based on further and higher agricultural education, with proud traditions!
