Located on Lake Båven in Södermanland County, Sweden, Sparreholm Castle features a main house designed in the 1890s and serves as a conference venue with a café.

Sparreholm Castle is a manor house in Flen Municipality, Södermanland County, Sweden. The estate is located on Lake Båven just outside the community of Sparreholm in Hyltinge parish.

The main house received its current appearance in the 1890s, according to drawings by architect Johan August Westerberg (1836-1900). At the manor, there are conference facilities and a café.

The Sparreholm automobile museum is located in a separate hall east of the manor. South of the manor, in the former carriage house, is a large collection of jukeboxes. On the ground floor of the building is the bicycle museum.
