Ericsberg Castle, 17th-century castle in Katrineholm, Sweden

The three-level castle features four wings with towers, a southwestern chapel wing, and a fountain positioned along the southern wall.

Built in 1664 for Baron Erik Karlsson Gyllenstierna, the castle was completed by his widow Beata von Yxkull and later extended by Nicodemus Tessin the Elder.

The castle contains plafonds created by David Klöcker Ehrenstrahl and houses a private library of 3,500 volumes focused on Swedish history and antiquities.

The castle grounds include apartments and holiday homes available for rent, with views of the surrounding lake and natural landscapes.

The castle archive maintains documents dating back to 1508, when the estate was known as Pintorp and changed ownership through notable Swedish noble families.
