Villa Bergsjölund, 18th-century residential building in Djurgården, Stockholm, Sweden.
Villa Bergsjölund is a residential building from the 18th century in Djurgården, located next to Prins Eugens Waldemarsudde and modified several times over the decades. The current structure displays features from the 1800s, including a glass veranda and tower that extend the original building.
Merchant Isac Kierman established the estate in 1773 with a substantial residence, summer house, and lakeside facilities. The property later underwent major changes as different owners adapted and modified it.
Over time, the residence housed different owners and briefly served as a confectionery business, reflecting how the area's uses have changed.
The location sits in Djurgården, an island area with good paths and open green space to explore. Being near other nearby attractions makes it easy to visit multiple sites in the area.
The property is the last standing building from a much larger estate that once formed part of the Stockholm Art Industry Exhibition of 1909. This link to the early modern design movement often goes unnoticed by visitors.
