Asser Rig (Hvide) was a Squire (Herremand) and Grandee (Stormand/Høvding)residing in Fjenneslev. It was during his time that the Sorø Abbey (SorøKloster) was founded. In Fjenneslev Church can be seen a whitewashpainting, which displays Asser Rig and his wife giving gifts to God: hehimself giving the church, and her a gold ring.

Asser Rig was foster-father to the murdered Danish nobleman Knud Lavard'sson Valdemar. Born one week after the murder of his father, Valdemargrew up in Asser's home in Fjenneslev together with Asser's two sonsEsbern and Absalon. Esbern became one of Valdemar's retainers. Absalonwas made bishop of Roskilde, in 1158, largely as a result of Valdemar'sputting in an appearance just when the canons were about to elect a newbishop. Later Absalon was made Archbishop of Lund in 1178. Absalon iscredited as being the founder of Københaven (Copenhagen).

According to "Nachkommen Gorms des Alten", by S.O. Brenner (1978
edition), Asser Rig's wife Inge (Inger) is probably the daughter of Earl
(Jarl) Erik and Princess Cecilie, daughter of Knud den Hellige.
Evidently the proof for this not absolute, and the accuracy of this
assertion is disputed.
