History
The main building was built between 1799 and 1803. It was then owned by the merchant Gabriel Schanche Kielland. He gave the estate its present name after the last letters of his and his wife's names: Gabriel Schanche Kielland, Johanna Margaretha Bull. Ledaal was bought by Stavanger Museum in 1936. The estate is today a royal residence, a museum and the representation building of Stavanger municipality.
In popular culture
In 1989 a painting of the residence was displayed at Nasjonalgalleriet as a part of the exhibition "Kulturminner i norsk kunst"; the painting was reviewed and commented during the opening day tour, by king Olav.[1]
