Råbelöv Castle, situated in Kristianstad Municipality, Skåne County, Sweden, was formed in the 17th century by Christoffer Ulfeldt, a Danish war-commissioner. Upon his death in 1682, the estate was inherited by Carl Gustaf Skytte, a Swedish military officer. Tragically, the castle burned down in 1782 and was rebuilt later. It is noteworthy that Råbelöv Castle resides near the Råby village, named for the 'troll' ('rå') and 'village' ('by') in the local language.
