Our choice of castle of this month fell on Hesselby Castle in Hässelby. They had a brunch-Sunday which sounded nice so we made reservations for us.
Gustaf Bonde began to build the manor in the 1640s. The main building is on two floors with two wings with the towered higher pavilions. The baroque garden behind the castle was built in the 18th century. The city of Stockholm bought the property in the 1930s and it was renovated in the 1960s. In 2010 it was sold to a private owner and it has been frequently available for weddings, conferences and hotel guests.
To the left of the entrance there is still a grave field from the viking era and to mark the place a runic stone was moved here in 1860.
– as I see it..
