The granite manor at Mostorp gård was built between 1878 and 1880. Its architecture reflects a medieval romantic style, designed to convey a sense of enduring weight and history.
The estate grew significantly in the 19th century. After Ludvig von Segebaden purchased part of the village in 1854, the property expanded until it became one of the largest farms in Halland by the end of that century.
Mostorp has been mentioned in official correspondence as far back as 1566. Since 1893, the land has remained in the von Braun family. The manor was officially designated as a listed building in 2003, preserving its status as a significant piece of local heritage.
Today, the site maintains its agricultural roots. The property functions as a working farm for cattle breeding and includes a slaughterhouse and a farm shop.
