c. 1649-1651
Around 1649 Hannibal Sehested received Storhamar as a noble seat. With it came Grefsheim and the properties that belonged to it.
Sehested was governor-general of Norway and son-in-law of Christian IV.
But the King died in 1648, and Sehested's position grew steadily more difficult under the new king, Frederik III.
In 1651 he had to resign as governor-general and give up his Norwegian estates after accusations of financial irregularities.
Grefsheim returned to the Crown.
