Sjundby Manor

Sjundby Manor is a stone building in Siuntio featuring defensive construction with thick walls, medieval cellars, and an observation tower added in 1892 on the grounds. The property includes several historical structures and open spaces that form the complete estate landscape.

The manor was built around 1560 and remained under Adlercreutz family control from the 1600s until 1944, spanning several generations of ownership. During the Soviet occupation of the Porkkala lease area, it served as a military garrison.

The manor reflects Finnish stone construction methods from the 1560s, commissioned by Jakob Henriksson, the stable master for King Gustav Vasa. This architectural tradition remains visible in how the building and surrounding estate are structured today.

To explore the historical buildings and grounds, visitors should arrange tours in advance by contacting the manor at info@seaction.com. Planning ahead ensures guided access and the best experience when visiting the property.

Princess Sigrid of Sweden, daughter of King Eric XIV, lived at the manor before passing it to her son Åke Tott in the early 1600s. This royal chapter in its history often goes unnoticed despite adding to the property's historical significance.
