Göksholm, Medieval castle in Örebro Municipality, Sweden.

Göksholm is a castle in Örebro Municipality, on the southern shore of Lake Hjälmaren in Sweden, combining medieval stone walls with Renaissance features such as larger windows and regular proportions. The structure has kept its original form over many centuries and is regarded as one of the oldest noble residences in the country still in use.

Göksholm's oldest parts date to the 13th century, when it was a fortified castle with a large tower. The first attested owner was Lady Ingeborg Ulfsdotter, mentioned in 1296. In 1436, Engelbrekt Engelbrektsson was murdered on the estate by Måns Bengtsson, son of the then owner. The Natt och Dag family held the estate for three hundred years, from the 14th to the late 17th century.

The painted ceiling in the Little Hall, with 121 coffers, was commissioned in the 1580s by Margareta Axelsdotter Bielke, widow of Johan Åkesson (Natt och Dag). Its hunting scenes of bear, deer, hare and fox follow prints by Cornelis Floris, and one panel shows the unknown painter bowing as he presents his work to her.

The castle is a private home that is actively lived in, so access for visitors is generally restricted and should be arranged in advance. It is worth contacting the owners before making the trip, as spontaneous visits are not usually possible.

The 1801 list of owners carved from a painted frieze of 1676 names Bo Nilsson, Bo Bosson and Sten Bosson as early lords, but the first documented owner is Lady Ingeborg Ulfsdotter, mentioned in 1296. The three names were extrapolated backwards from Bengt Stensson and are now considered incorrect.
