Trollenäs Castle, Renaissance castle in Eslöv Municipality, Sweden
Trollenäs Castle is a Renaissance fortress in Eslöv situated where the Saxån and Gullarpsån rivers meet, featuring French architectural design with detailed brick elements and round-arched pediments. The structure includes surrounding park grounds with a café and functions as a venue for events.
The estate began in 1386 when knight Stig Aagesen held the property, which then passed to the Thott family for several generations. In the 18th century, Fredrik Trolle established it as a family trust, securing its name for the future.
The interior displays furnishings from Sweden's era as a major European power, with valuable pieces and a stone staircase in the entrance hall that reflect how the nobility lived during that time.
The grounds are accessible through a park area and offer café services for visitors. It is worth checking ahead about events happening on your visit date, as it regularly hosts private and business gatherings.
The property was originally known simply as Näs until Fredrik Trolle added his family name to establish it more formally. This 18th century name change marked the castle's transformation into a lasting family legacy.
