Mörby slottsruin, Medieval castle ruins in Norrtälje Municipality, Sweden

The stone remains of Mörby Castle include sections of a tower structure and exterior walls standing against the Swedish countryside landscape.

Built in 1387 by knight Henrik Damerow, the castle remained in the Oxenstierna family ownership from 1452 until its destruction by fire in 1740.

The Renaissance architecture of Mörby Castle represented the Swedish nobility's architectural preferences during the 16th and 17th centuries.

Visitors can access the ruins through a five-minute walk from the parking area at Fasterna Church, with entry permitted only during public opening hours.

Nine different species of bats have established temporary residences within the castle ruins, making it an ecological habitat for these protected animals.
