Löberöd Castle, Manor house in Eslöv Municipality, Sweden.
Löberöd Castle is a manor house in Eslöv Municipality built on elevated terrain with an octagonal stair tower and two-story wings as its defining architectural features. The grounds feature an artificial lake that was created during the original construction through deliberate drainage projects designed to shape the landscape.
Baron Hans Ramel commissioned the construction of the current building in 1798, but died shortly after its completion in 1799. The property subsequently passed through multiple owners over nearly two centuries before returning to the Ramel family.
The castle served as a repository for Count Jacob De la Gardie's extensive collection of books, paintings, and manuscripts that reflected the tastes of the era. This accumulated wealth of knowledge was eventually transferred to Lund University, where it remains part of their holdings.
The elevated terrain and the distinctive octagonal tower serve as good landmarks for navigating the property. The artificial lake and surrounding grounds provide ample space to explore the entire estate at a comfortable pace.
The property was repurchased by the Ramel family in 1997, nearly 80 years after leaving their hands. This return to family ownership after so many decades marked a reconnection with the estate's roots.
