Ransäters bruksherrgård, Manor house museum in Ransäter, Sweden.

The white wooden building features symmetrical facades, traditional gabled roofs, and multiple exhibition spaces dedicated to regional heritage and notable residents.

Founded in 1640 as an ironworks estate by Johan Börjesson, the manor operated three bar iron hammers until manufacturing ceased in the late nineteenth century.

The museum displays collections related to writer Erik Gustaf Geijer, author Fredrik August Dahlgren, and painter Uno Troili, highlighting their contributions to Swedish arts.

The museum opens seasonally from May to August, offering guided tours through period-furnished rooms and educational programs about Swedish manor life.

The current structure, built in 1914, incorporates materials from the original manor where philosopher Erik Gustaf Geijer spent his childhood years.
