Skebo herrgård is an 18th-century manor located in the village of Skebobruk in Norrtälje municipality. The current manor was built between 1767 and 1770 by Jakob Grill of the Grill family. While a previous manor existed at the site, it is not depicted. Small-scale iron production had been occurring in the area since the 1400s, and the production at Skebo bruk expanded significantly starting in the early 1600s.
