Håtunaholms säteri, Manor house in Håtuna, Sweden
Håtunaholms säteri is a manor house located in the Uppland region of eastern Sweden, positioned near Lake Mälaren. The estate comprises multiple buildings including the main residence and various agricultural structures scattered across its grounds.
The estate was the site of the Håtunaleken event in 1306 and belonged to King Valdemar Birgersson before passing to Uppsala Cathedral in 1311. The manor was rebuilt in its current form during the early 1900s, replacing the previous structure.
The manor represents Swedish nobility architecture through different periods, with its current structure dating from the early 1900s replacing an earlier design.
The estate is located in a rural area and is best reached by car since it sits away from major towns. The site is most accessible during seasons when weather conditions are favorable and roads are in good condition.
During World War II the estate served as headquarters for a Danish military unit, making it an unexpected military command center during the war years. This connection to Danish forces remains an overlooked chapter in the property's modern story.
