Ulvsunda Castle, 17th-century palace in Bromma, Stockholm, Sweden.
Ulvsunda Castle is a two-story stone palace built in the 17th century in Bromma, Stockholm, with symmetrical wings, a mansard roof, and large windows facing outward. The surrounding gardens blend into views of the water, creating a peaceful setting around the structure.
Field Marshal Lennart Torstenson ordered construction between 1644 and 1647 when Sweden was expanding its military power. The building became part of the kingdom's strategic holdings during this period of growth.
The rooms display furnishings and decorations that show how Swedish nobility lived from the 17th through 19th centuries. Walking through these spaces gives visitors a sense of the daily life and tastes of the people who once called it home.
The palace operates as a hotel and conference center with guest rooms and meeting facilities. Visitors should note that it sits outside the city center and is best reached by car or arranged transport.
The grounds contain a preserved medieval farm site from the 14th century, one of Stockholm's oldest documented settlements. This layer of history lies beneath or alongside the baroque structure, showing how long people have occupied this location.
