Fållnäs, Manor house in Sorunda, Sweden
Fållnäs is an estate in Sorunda consisting of six paired wing buildings with pink walls accented by white plaster bands arranged symmetrically. The balanced layout of these structures demonstrates a unified architectural design that defines the character of the complex.
The property dates to 1291 when Magnus Johansson owned it and later gave it to Sko Monastery. This monastic connection influenced the estate's development and role in the region for centuries afterward.
The estate operates as an art gallery today while the Toll family actively manages farming and forestry on the land. Visitors can see contemporary art exhibitions displayed within the historical buildings alongside the working countryside around them.
The property offers year-round facilities for weddings, events, hunting activities, and vacation accommodations. Visitors should arrange visits in advance to ensure access to specific areas or activities on the grounds.
The site originally contained a medieval defensive tower with exceptionally thick walls, representing one of Sweden's largest kastal-type structures. Though no longer standing, its former presence reveals the strategic importance the location held in earlier times.
