Stora Ek Manor

The Stora Ek Manor features symmetrical facades, with the main building complemented by kitchen wings on both sides of the structure.

The estate transformed from wooden structures to its current form through an extensive reconstruction project completed in 1782 under Ulrik Scheffer's supervision.

The manor represents late 18th-century Swedish architecture, incorporating French design elements that were preferred by the nobility of that period.

The manor maintains its private status, requiring advance arrangements for those interested in examining its architectural and historical features.

A memorial stone placed in the park by Ulrik Scheffer marks the completion of the estate's redesign, serving as a timestamp of its transformation.
