Herrevad Abbey
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Herrevad Abbey is an abbey near Ljungbyhed, Scania, in the south of Sweden. It is notable as the site of Tycho Brahe's discovery of the supernova SN 1572 in Cassiopeia and as the birthplace of Swedish paper production. In Brahe's time, the abbey was in Denmark, but the region was ceded to Sweden in 1658.
