Rockelstad Castle, Renaissance Revival château in Flen Municipality, Sweden.

The castle features a main building with two round and two square towers overlooking Lake Båven in the Södermanland region of Sweden.

Built around 1300, the castle underwent major reconstruction in 1642 under David Stuart, with additional towers added in 1889 by architect Gustaf Lindgren.

The castle contains an ethnographic collection assembled by Count Eric von Rosen, displaying historical artifacts that represent Swedish noble life.

Visitors can arrange guided tours of the castle, which now functions as a private venue for weddings, conferences, and special events.

The entrance hall, completed in 1903 under architect Ivar Tengbom's direction, demonstrates the evolving architectural styles of Swedish manor houses.
