Fållan, Villa community in Trångsund, Huddinge, Sweden

Fållan is a small villa community on the shore of Lake Magelungen in Trångsund, Huddinge municipality, part of the Stockholm urban area. Its older core is the former estate by the lake, shown on Jonas Collin's 1758 map as a main building with two detached wings. The present Fållans gård, a little further east, was built in the early 20th century.

Fållan began as a croft under Länna Manor, first recorded in the geometric land register of 1636 as "falla", an animal enclosure. It was noble land exchanged by the crown in 1628 and redeemed in 1645, then about 50 hectares. In the 18th century it became a summer residence; the main building was demolished around 1840, and today's Fållans gård east of the site dates from the early 20th century.

The name Fållan comes from an old word for an animal enclosure, while the later form Follan echoes the French folies, the summer homes of wealthy Stockholmers. Visitors can still see the four lindens from Bellman's time, known as Bellmanslindarna, and the double row of trees on the meadow that marks the old avenue to the farm.

Fållan lies by Lake Magelungen in Trångsund, part of the Stockholm urban area, and is reached by commuter train to Trångsund or by bus along Nynäsvägen, which was built through the area in the 1970s. The old manor site is a short walk from the present Fållan farm, built in the early 20th century further east. Look for the two rows of trees on the meadow that mark the former avenue.

Four lindens near the lakeside hill are known as Bellmanslindarna, after Carl Michael Bellman, who spent the summer of 1773 at Fållan and wrote 23 poems there. An older house foundation on the hill marks where the manor stood until it was demolished around 1840. The avenue that once led to Fållan survives as two rows of trees on the meadow.
