Voxna herrgård, Manor house in Voxnabruk, Sweden.
Description
Voxna herrgård is a manor with two-and-a-half stories, distinguished by a prominent clock tower and whitewashed walls. The building blends rococo design elements with Gustavian classical architecture in its overall form.
History
Built between 1791 and 1793 by industrialist Jürgen Christoffer Müller, the manor replaced an earlier structure on the site. The construction reflected the growing importance of the Voxna Bruk industrial location during that period.
Culture
The upper hall contains wall paintings from the 1790s showing scenes of the former Voxna Bruk industrial works. These images reflect how central the factory complex was to the area and shape the interior experience today.
Practical
The manor currently serves as an event venue for conferences, weddings, and celebrations, with rooms available for overnight stays on the second floor. Visitors should note that spaces are primarily reserved for private functions, so advance planning is advisable.
Did you know?
A spiral staircase inside the manor was built by Russian prisoners of war using shipbuilding techniques without nails. This craftwork stands as a quiet testament to the period's history.
