Skebo herrgård

Skebo herrgård is a two-story stone manor house with white-painted walls located in the Roslagen region north of Stockholm. The property includes several outbuildings from its history alongside landscaped grounds.

The manor house was built between 1767 and 1770 by Dutch businessman Jakob Grill. This location had been home to one of Uppland's oldest ironworks since 1444, making it central to industrial development in the region.

The grounds reflect its industrial heritage through remaining buildings like warehouses and an orangery that visitors can see today. These structures show how iron production once shaped the rhythm of work and daily life in this region.

The property is located about one hour north of Stockholm and can be reached by car through scenic countryside roads. Since it is a private residence, visitors should check in advance about access to the grounds or any viewing opportunities.

The property preserves rare worker residential streets from the ironworks era that show how laboring families once lived in company-run settlements. These streets remain among the few surviving examples of such settlements from that period in the region.
