Børge Hinsch Fonden at Gram Castle

The Børge Hinsch Foundation is a non-profit and charitable independent institution that owns, stores, maintains, conserves, supplements and displays to the public the collections transferred to the foundation by its founder and any other collections donated to the foundation, as well as contributing to general information and education in the field of hunting and nature. The latter led to the foundation establishing the Børge Hinsch Foundation Nature School in 2006, which has now been operating for 20 years. The foundation's operation of the nature school, museum, etc. is in all respects on a non-profit basis.
