Gunnebo House, Neoclassical manor house in Mölndal, Sweden.

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.

Hidden places in Sweden

Sweden stretches from southern sand beaches to forests and tundra in the north. The country preserves records from several millennia: prehistoric rock carvings, Viking burial sites, medieval fortresses, and 18th century ironworks. The coastline includes limestone cliffs, archipelago islands, and wooden piers at small fishing villages. This collection takes you to historical places like Gammelstad Church Town, where hundreds of red wooden huts surround a medieval pilgrimage center, or the Stone Ship Monument at Kåseberga, where raised stones form the outline of a Viking ship. It also includes national parks such as Skuleskogen with its spruce forests and steep coasts, ironworks like Engelsberg where charcoal blast furnaces still stand, and museums like the Hallwyl collection in Stockholm. Visitors find island fortresses, peatlands, long-distance trails through arctic regions, and villages that show Swedish life from earlier centuries.
