Valbygård is a Renaissance Revival manor house located four kilometres northwest of Slagelse in Denmark. The main building was constructed in 1855 for August Willads Bech, whose family acquired the surrounding estate in 1846 from land that had previously belonged to Antvorskov Abbey. The property was formally created as a distinct estate by Joachim Castenschiold in 1874 and encompasses 1,100 hectares. The house was designated a protected building on the Danish national registry in 1996 and has remained in the Bech family since its nineteenth-century establishment.
