Sövdeborg Castle, Renaissance castle in Sövde, Sweden.

The castle contains interior elements with oak ceilings and detailed stucco work displaying Renaissance architectural features throughout the structure.

Frederik Lange obtained the estate from the crown in 1587 and established the castle in 1597, marking the beginning of its architectural legacy.

The cartilage baroque style oak ceiling represents the craftsmanship and architectural preferences of Swedish nobility during the Renaissance period.

The castle requires scheduled appointments for visits, as it maintains controlled access to protect its historical architecture and interior elements.

Lieutenant Erik Carl Piper commissioned architect Carl Georg Brunius to perform an extensive restoration during the 1840s, preserving its Renaissance character.
