Jordberga Castle, a manor house in Trelleborg Municipality in the Scania region of southern Sweden, dates to the 1400s. It has withstood the passage of time, its structure a testament to resilience.
Governor Eric von Nolcken bought the castle in 1811. His son, Carl Adam von Nolcken, had the main house built in Gothic style under the design of Swedish architect Carl Georg Brunius.
In 1908, Carl Gustaf Stjernswärd had the main house rebuilt. It was designed in Art Nouveau baroque style by Danish architect Henri Carl August Glæsel. Even through its redesign and changing hands, Jordberga Castle continues to stand in the heart of Skåne.
