Vibyholm Castle: Designed by Caspar van Panten

Designed by Dutch architect Caspar van Panten, Vibyholm Castle stands on an island in Lake Båven.

Vibyholm Castle, on an island in Lake Båven, was designed by Dutch architect Caspar van Panten between 1622 and 1630 in Dutch High Renaissance style. The castle is a manor house located in Årdala, Flen Municipality, Sweden.

Restoration was made in 1798 following drawings by Swedish architect Carl Christoffer Gjörwell. In the middle of the 19th century, further restoration to the house was undertaken under the direction of Swedish architect Lars Jacob von Röök.
