Ulvsunda Castle, commissioned by Field Marshal Lennart Torstenson in the 17th century, was shaped by generations of the Åkerhielm family before becoming a luxurious hotel.
Gustaf Åkerhielm, Prime Minister of Sweden, used the estate principally as a summer residence. After his time as owner, his heirs sold most of the property in 1902.
In 1904, the city of Stockholm bought the property. Today, Ulvsunda serves as a hotel and conference facility, though its current appearance dates from the 1830s.
