Borgeby Castle

Borgeby Castle stands next to the Kävlingeån River, featuring a 15th-century tower, a 13th-century gatehouse, and a main building from the 1550s.

The castle originated in 980 as a Viking Age fortress built by Danish king Harald Bluetooth, later serving as a residence for the Archbishop of Lund until 1536.

The Norlindmuseet, established in 1988 within the gatehouse, displays an extensive collection of art and literature from artist Ernst Norlind.

The castle opens its rooms for meetings, seminars, corporate events, family celebrations, and operates a café during summer months.

Archaeologists discovered evidence of a mint during excavations in 1998, confirming the castle's role as an administrative center in medieval times.
