Bona gård

Bona gård, Manor house in Ekerö Municipality, Sweden

Bona gård is a manor house located in Ekerö Municipality east of Stockholm, surrounded by fields and woodland that display traditional Swedish rural architecture. The main residence and its associated farm buildings sit within an active agricultural landscape that continues to function as productive farmland.

Bona gård is first mentioned in 1185, when it belonged to the Archbishop of Uppsala, and it was long the largest estate on Munsön. Letters from 1250–1359 show the archbishop sometimes resided there. In 1470 the pledged estate passed to Karl Knutsson (Bonde), was inherited by Sten Sture the Elder and fell to the crown at his death. From the mid-17th century it was granted to noblemen; in 1730 Johan Giertta made it a fideicommissum, still held by the Giertta family.

The name Bona survives in the surrounding landscape: the hamlet of Glimabodhum in Munsö parish has disappeared, while the dependent farms and crofts Eknäs, Lindevik, Malmvik, Vattunöden, Gläntan and Löten still stand near the main building. Eknäs, just north of it, was formerly an outlying farm of Bona and its main building is a light-yellow rendered timber house from the early 1900s.

Bona gård lies on Munsön in Ekerö Municipality, with the main building at the coordinates 59.40191, 17.56808. Munsö kyrka, the round church built on the estate's land, stands nearby and is worth combining with a visit. Just north of the main building is Eknäs, a former outlying farm of Bona whose main building is an early 20th-century light-yellow plastered timber house; the crofts Lindevik, Malmvik, Vattunöden, Gläntan and Löten lie in the surroundings.

Munsö kyrka, a round church built on Bona gård's land, served as a fortified refuge for the people of Bona. Letters dated between 1250 and 1359 show the Archbishop of Uppsala sometimes stayed at the estate. North of the main building stands Eknäs, a former outlying farm with a light-yellow plastered timber house from the early 1900s.
