Svenstorp Castle, Renaissance castle near Igelösa, Sweden
The castle features unplastered brick walls with carved sandstone details and a central building connected to two single-story side wings.
Built in 1596 by Beata Hvitfeldt, a lady-in-waiting to Danish King Christian IV, with architect Hans Steenwinkel directing the construction.
The gardens of Svenstorp Castle received recognition from botanist Carl von Linné during his journey through Skåne in 1749.
While the castle interior remains private as the residence of the Gyllenkrok family, visitors can explore the centuries-old park and gardens.
The same royal bedroom hosted Danish King Christian V before the Battle of Lund and Swedish King Charles XI immediately after the battle in 1676.
