Noor palace is a 14th-century mansion in Knivsta, Sweden. Confiscated by King Charles XI in 1686 as part of the reduction, it was used as a hunting lodge by the Swedish royals, later renovated by Count Nils Gyldenstolpe in Swedish Carolean Style. The Hermelin family owned the estate from 1761 until the 1980s. Erik Dahlberg sketched the house for his Suecia antiqua et hodierna. Noor palace, now a privately owned conference centre, offers a glimpse into Sweden's royal past.
