I'm thinking Lions International Denmark... but that's as much a guess as anything
Perhaps Kalø Castle Ruins?

There is a Lions Club International Rønde chapter (they have a FB page), but still no stamp ID

stainlessb should be on the right track. It should be a local Lions Club Christmas stamp for Rønde. A lot of Danish local clubs issued their own Christmas stamps -- some of them quite attractive.

Although I also know in my mind that Jul is Christmas in Danish, like Kevin ( wakeybluenose), that somehow didn't really occur to me. Perhaps it's the design of the stamp, which doesn't look even remotely Christmas-y to me. Overwhelmingly brown with a bit of yellow in the background.....

That must be a pic of a local historical site - old standing stones maybe? It might relate to the locale, but dang sure doesn’t seem to have any relationship to the Christian Jul holiday at all. Maybe that’s where the locals have a pagan Yule celebration? Maybe it’s just simply poor design. Interesting little Cindy though.

stainlessb, I would say your original guess was correct, the ruins of Kalø Castle.
