Södermanland County, Administrative region in east-central Sweden
Södermanland County spans 6,607 square kilometers between Lake Mälar and the Baltic Sea, featuring numerous small lakes and fertile agricultural lands.
The county emerged as an administrative division in 1634, when Sweden reorganized its territorial management system under the reign of King Gustav II Adolf.
The territory maintains 300 runestones from the Viking Age, numerous medieval churches, and several Renaissance castles including the National Portrait Gallery at Gripsholm.
Nine municipalities form the county, with Nyköping serving as the administrative center and Eskilstuna functioning as the largest urban settlement.
The Sörmlandsleden trail network extends for 1,000 kilometers through the county, connecting coastal areas, forests, and lakeside paths for year-round outdoor activities.
