Sundholmen Castle, Medieval castle ruin in Borås Municipality, Sweden

The stone remnants of Sundholmen Castle stand on elevated ground, displaying foundations and partial walls that mark the original structure's perimeter.

The castle served as a defensive structure during medieval times, contributing to the regional control and protection of trade routes through Västra Götaland County.

The ruins represent an important example of Swedish medieval military architecture, providing evidence of construction methods and defensive strategies from that period.

Visitors can reach the castle site by following marked paths through the countryside of Äspereds sogn, approximately 20 kilometers from central Borås.
