Edsbergs Castle was an enchanting journey into Sweden’s regal past that left me deeply impressed and inspired.
Nestled in a picturesque setting just outside Stockholm, this historic castle offers a unique blend of majestic architecture, lush gardens, and serene surroundings.
From the moment I arrived, the castle's grandeur was apparent. The classic 17th-century architecture, with its elegant facades and stately towers, immediately transported me back in time.
Walking up to the castle, I was captivated by the sweeping views of the surrounding parkland and the tranquil lake that complements the castle's beauty.
Inside, the castle exudes a sense of historical charm and sophistication. The interiors are thoughtfully preserved, showcasing period furnishings, intricate woodwork, and classic artwork.

Read moreEdsbergs slott är ett tidigare säteri vid Landsnoravägen 10, beläget i Edsberg i Sollentuna socken i Sollentuna kommun. Nuvarande byggnaden stod färdig 1760 och uppfördes vid norra stranden vid Edsviken på initiativ av Thure Gustaf Rudbeck. Efter att egendomen och slottet varit i familjen Rudbecks ägo i nästan 200 år såldes först marken och senare även byggnaden till Sollentuna köping.

It was very soon after completion signed over to count Gabriel Bengtsson Oxenstierna (1586–1656) who changed it into a manor in 1647.

In 1670, when the manor had been inherited by the son Gabriel Gabrielsson Oxenstierna, King Charles XI of Sweden and the Queen Dowager Hedvig Eleonora of Holstein-Gottorp came for a visit.
The manor later belonged to the Rudbeck family, the first of which was the Governor of Stockholm, Thure Gustaf Rudbeck (1714-1786). In 1760 he replaced the old wooden construction with the stone building still in standing and in use today. The main building was most likely designed by architect Carl Wijnblad in simplified French rococo style and had two floors, plastered façade and two wings.
