Trolleholm Castle

Trolleholm Castle, Medieval castle in Svalöv Municipality, Sweden

Trolleholm is a red brick castle complex comprising three buildings with four corner towers and a stair tower arranged around an enclosed courtyard. The estate spreads across approximately 5,000 hectares of land with around 110 houses and functions as a venue for corporate events.

The estate is first mentioned in 1424 as a dependency of a monastery, under the name Kattesnabbe, later Eriksholm. From 1533 it belonged to the Thott family, who built a four-winged castle surrounded by moats in 1538. After a fire in 1678, the Trolle family bought the property two years later; the building was rebuilt in 1755 in Renaissance style, and Frederik Trolle gave it its current name. In 1887–1889 the Danish architect Ferdinand Meldahl made modifications.

The castle's name comes from the Trolle family, who bought the estate in 1680 and gave it its present name through Frederik Trolle (1693–1770). The Trolle-Bonde family inherited the estate in 1806 and still owns it. The castle holds an art collection and a library of about 45,000 documents.

Access is typically limited to guided tours or special events, so checking opening times in advance is recommended. The extensive grounds require time to explore fully and offer space for unhurried visits.

Arrow Games used a photograph of Trolleholm on a jigsaw in its Scandinavian Series from the 1960s to the 1980s, but labelled it "Trolleheim Castle" and placed it in Norway. Searches for that name lead only back to the puzzle. An online version of the jigsaw correctly identifies the castle as Swedish.
