Steninge Palace, Baroque palace in Märsta, Sweden
Steninge Palace is a Baroque estate in Märsta featuring French-inspired design with symmetrical wings and ornamental stone details. The main building overlooks Lake Mälaren with formal gardens surrounding the grounds.
Carl Gyllenstierna commissioned architect Nicodemus Tessin the Younger to design the palace following French Baroque principles, completed in 1705. The construction reflected European trends and influenced how similar estates would be built in Sweden.
The place reflects French architectural tastes through its formal layout and design choices visible in how the grounds are organized. Walking around, you notice how these European influences shape the way the landscape is arranged and experienced today.
The grounds are accessible for walking and exploration, so comfortable shoes are recommended for navigating the paths. The estate can be visited throughout the year, with seasonal changes affecting how the gardens and landscape appear.
The estate includes an old stone barn building separate from the palace that now houses shops and a restaurant. This former working structure allows visitors to shop and dine while exploring the grounds.
