Ekenäs Castle, Renaissance castle in Linköping, Sweden.

The castle features three high square towers with baroque domes, white walls, and a fixed stone bridge leading to the entrance vault.

Originally built as a medieval fortress in the 14th century, the current structure was constructed during the 17th century under Baron Peder Banér's ownership.

The castle exhibits preserved architectural elements spanning three centuries, including original painted ceilings and wall friezes from the 1600s.

The castle welcomes visitors throughout the year, with interior tours available during summer months and guided experiences of the furnished chambers.

The surrounding lake that provided natural defenses was drained in the late 19th century to create additional farmland for agricultural purposes.
