Häckeberga Castle, French Renaissance castle on an island in Häckebergasjön Lake, Sweden.

The castle stands on one of seven islands within Lake Häckebergasjön, featuring tall towers and symmetrical architecture that reflects 19th-century design principles.

Built between 1873 and 1875 by Tönnes Wrangel von Brehmer, the current structure replaced an earlier castle from 1530 that occupied the same location.

The castle remained a private residence until the 1990s, when its owners transformed it into an establishment combining Swedish hospitality with historical preservation.

The property now functions as a hotel with 27 rooms, six meeting spaces, and a restaurant that seats 65 guests under the guidance of a former Michelin-starred chef.

Mackmyra Whisky previously stored their spirits in one of the castle warehouses, adding an unexpected chapter to the building's varied history.
