Hellekis säteri, Manor house in Götene Municipality, Sweden

The stone mansion stands within an extensive park featuring walnut trees, sweet chestnuts, and a distinguished ginkgo tree on the shores of Lake Vänern.

The estate, first documented in 1473 as residence of nobleman Björn Bengtsson, underwent reconstruction in 1791 following designs by architect Olof Tempelman.

The rose garden, established in 1934, contains traditional varieties and numerous perennial flower beds that showcase the region's horticultural traditions.

Visitors can access the estate via Västtågen train to Råbäck station, with the greenhouse gallery and restaurant open during the main season from May to September.

The property's walnut trees, noted by Carl Linnaeus in 1746, continue to produce approximately 10,000 nuts each season in the lime-rich soil.
