About Falkensten

Architecture, Historic Architecture, Interesting Places, Manor Houses

Falkensten er en herregård i Borre ved Horten. Gården hadde en storhetstid da den tilhørte adelsslekten Lange fra slutten av 1500-tallet til 1696. Gården ble senere kjøpt av Jørgen Qval (eller Qvall). Han satte i gang forsøk med glassverk, og fikk i 1736 det første privilegium i Norge til slik produksjon. Men han lyktes ikke med å komme i ordinær produksjon, og mistet privilegiet igjen.

Rundt 1900 ble det anlagt ullvarefabrikk med farveri, teglverk, mølle og sagbruk på gården. Til godset hører to vannfall i elven som kommer fra Borrevannet. Fabrikkene ble anlagt ved dem.
