Kronovall Castle carries the history of a 17th-century castle: a purchase by a Danish councilor in the early 17th century and a sale to a Swedish nobleman in 1668. The main building, standing today with its two floors, was built in 1760.
However, in 1896, the castle underwent a significant change when it was rebuilt in French Baroque style by Carl Gustaf Sparre, using drawings by Isak Gustaf Clason. The architecture features tower-bearing wings.
Today, Kronovall Castle in Tomelilla Municipality, Scania, Sweden, operates a hotel, restaurant, wine café and conference rooms on site. It remains a preserved example of an 18th-century castle turned into a modern venue.
