Biskopskällaren

The stone structure sits between Ivö Lake and Oppmanna Lake, featuring architectural elements from both monastic and noble residence periods.

Originally built as a monastery in the 13th century, the site underwent transformation into a castle during the 16th century under Danish control.

The building serves as a testament to medieval Swedish architecture, displaying construction methods from religious and noble building traditions.

Visitors can access the historical site throughout the year and explore the grounds while learning about its transformation from monastery to castle.

The location on an isthmus between two lakes provided strategic advantages, making it a significant point for controlling regional water routes.
