Linderud Manor (Linderud gård) was owned by the Catholic Church before the Reformation of 1536, and thereafter by the Crown. It was bought by Peder Griffenfeldt in 1673, then by Mogens Lauritzen in 1679, and belonged to the latter's family for over a century. By the late eighteenth century, the manor was a part of a property which included vast amounts of forest, some timber industrial sites and about 350 farms.

Lauritzen's ancestor Mogens Larsen Monsen passed it down to his son-in-law Haagen Mathiesen Later owners include Haaken C. Mathiesen from 1875 to 1891, Christian Pierre Mathiesen from 1893 to 1940 and Jørgen Mathiesen from 1940. Jørgen Mathiesen set up the Linderud Foundation in 1954, which now owns the main building of the manor as well as the surrounding park.
