The present building was constructed in 1827 under commission from Baron Knut Kurck. He had previously played a significant role in Swedish state affairs during the late 18th century.

The manor has been home to various noble families across generations, reflecting its role in regional aristocratic networks. This heritage shapes how the property and grounds are maintained today.
