Kagghamra gård, Manor house in Botkyrka Municipality, Sweden
Kagghamra gård is a white wooden single-story building positioned on a southern slope with a tiled roof and Rococo details. The structure overlooks the water and sits within a large working farmland that spans hundreds of hectares.
The estate first appeared in records during the late 15th century and gained formal status as a manor under the Bååt family in the 1600s. This development established it as a significant regional property that continued to operate for centuries.
The name reflects the landscape and settlement history of the region over centuries. Visitors can see how this location remains rooted in the daily life of rural Sweden.
Access to the site is through rural roads that cross the active farmland surrounding the property. The best time to visit is during warmer months when the fields are in use and the countryside is fully visible.
In the 1880s the property operated a shipyard that built specialized vessels including some with metal hulls and steam power. The remains of this industrial period can still be traced in the landscape today.
