Gunnebo House

Gunnebo House is a neoclassical manor set on an estate between two lakes in Mölndal. The property includes the main residence, formal gardens, working kitchen gardens, an orangery building, and a landscaped park spread across the grounds.

The manor was built in 1778 as a summer home for a wealthy merchant and designed by a prominent Gothenburg architect. Over 200 original architectural plans from that era survive and guide all restoration work today.

The house shows how wealthy merchants lived in the 18th century, with original furniture and decorations throughout its rooms. Every interior space tells the story of daily life and taste during that period.

Visitors can join guided tours offered in several languages and eat at the restaurant that uses produce from the estate's gardens. The grounds are walkable, though paths through the gardens and park have varying levels of ease.

A historical postal coach station sits on the grounds, showing how travelers once moved between towns. This outbuilding reveals the practical side of estate life in earlier centuries.
