The current Lindås Church

Ludvig Daae (May 9, 1723 – February 18, 1786) was a Norwegian priest and landowner.

Daae was born in Vik in Sogn og Fjordane county, [1] [2] the son of Anders Daae (1680–1763) and Birgitte Munthe. He received a master's degree in philosophy in 1746, after which he used the title Mag. or Magister 'master'. [3] Daae served as the parish priest in Lindås from 1759 onward. Daae married Drude Cathrine Haar (1739–1787) [1] when she was 15 years old. [2] He had 15 children with her, [2] and several of his children and grandchildren served as priests and officers in Western Norway. [4] Daae was the grandfather of the historian Ludvig Kristensen Daa and the priest Claus Daae, and the great-grandfather of the politician Ludvig Daae, the historian Ludvig Ludvigsen Daae, and Suzannah Daae Thoresen, the wife of Henrik Ibsen. [4] Daae died and was buried on the island of Lygra in Hordaland county. [2] [5]

Daae left an estate that included 23 farms in Sogn and 31 parts of farms in Lindås. He also owned many churches with tithes: churches in the parish of Lindås ( Lindås, Myking, Sandnes, and Lygra churches), Arnafjord Church and Hove Church in the parish of Vik, and Hamre Church in Osterøy. The churches and land in the estate amounted to a sales value of over 12,000 rixdollars. [6]
