Häringe Castle

Häringe Castle

Häringe Castle was home to just seven families since its construction in 1657. Now, the doors are open to the public again, offering a unique stay in Sweden's past.

Häringe Palace, a former manor house in Södermanland, Sweden, sits within the Häringe-Hammersta Nature Reserve, about 35 km south of Stockholm. It was built on the initiative of Gustav Horn, Count of Pori, and construction was completed in 1657. Over the years, the palace, which has been home to only seven families, was inherited by Agneta Horn, Agneta Wrede, Hedvig Catharina De la Gardie, and Count Carl Julius De la Gardie. It was later purchased by Major General Fabian Löwen and, in the 1930s, underwent a renovation at the hands of engineer and industrialist Torsten Kreuger. In 2017, the palace was bought by businessman Veselin Vesko Mijač, who transformed it into a luxury hotel and conference center. The palace is now open to the public, inviting guests to step back in time and experience a piece of Swedish history.
