Mauritzberg

Mauritzberg is a manor house positioned on a cliff overlooking Bråviken bay, surrounded by forest that fills the landscape. The elevated setting provides views across the water and the natural surroundings.

The property was originally called Björsätter in the 1500s before being renamed after a family member. The new name was set in 1592 and has remained in use since then.

The name reflects an important historical figure, and the place attracted writers who drew inspiration from its setting. Today visitors can still walk through the rooms where literary work took place.

The manor now operates as a hotel distributed across the main building, a former mill, and wing sections. Visitors should expect to find different accommodation areas spread throughout these connected structures.

Iron urns on bridge railings bear initials pointing to royal connections from the 1700s. These small details reveal personal ties to Swedish noble history.
