Vanås Castle

The castle rises among gardens and natural grounds, featuring stone walls, traditional Nordic architectural elements, and multiple historical buildings across the estate.

Construction of the castle began in the 15th century, serving as a residence for regional nobility and playing a role in local governance throughout centuries.

Since 1987, the castle grounds have transformed into an art venue, displaying permanent outdoor sculptures and contemporary installations throughout the buildings.

Visitors can explore around 70 permanent art installations within the castle park, including works made from materials such as diabas and bronze.

The estate merges medieval architecture with modern art exhibitions, housing pieces like Cow Chapel by Kari Cavén in its historical structures.
