Viderup Castle (Swedish: Viderups slott) is a manor house located in Eslöv Municipality, Scania, Sweden. The castle was built in the Renaissance style during the early 17th century by Anne Brahe (1576-1635).
Brahe was the widow of Steen Maltesen Sehested (1553-1611), who served as the Danish Marshal of the Realm and was the commander of Froste Herred in Scania. The manor was formerly known as Hviderup.
The main building features two floors and two one-storey wings. These structures surround a courtyard that is open to the north. The castle remains a historical manor house in the region today.
