Rosendal Castle, Renaissance castle in Helsingborg Municipality, Sweden.
Rosendal is a Renaissance castle in western Scania with enclosed central grounds surrounded by moats. An eastern formal garden extends from the main building, while agricultural structures stand around the perimeter.
Anders Stensson Bille on Råbelöv began construction in 1615 while serving as Riksråd and sheriff of Helsingborg. The design reflected Renaissance principles and the traditions of Nordic nobility from that era.
The castle displays Swedish Renaissance architecture through its layout and preserves traditional elements of Nordic noble estates. Visitors can observe these characteristics while exploring the rooms and walking across the grounds.
The castle can be rented for events and gatherings, with ten decorated rooms available for viewing. The grounds are easiest to explore during drier months when the gardens and outdoor areas are more accessible.
The restored Bille room features an original fireplace with distinctive craftsmanship from its period. The eastern garden contains a fountain made from Diabas stone, a rare rock type in this region.
