Rytterhuset (lit. "The Rider's House"), located at Nordre Strandvej 230, Ålsgårde, Helsingør Municipality, Denmarkm was built in 1889 to a national romantic design by Martin Nyrop as summer residence for the painter Frants Henningsen. The property, including a detached atelier, a jetty with a bathhouse and a number of other outbuildings, were listed in the Danish registry of protected buildings and places in 1993. The ample use of wood ornamentation and polychromy are both tell-tale features of this particular architectural style. The name of the building was inspired by a relief of a horseman located above the main entrance. Barbicaia at Nordre Strandvej 232 dates from the same year and was also designed by Nyrop but has undergone considerable alterations and is therefore not listed.
