Toppeladugård Castle

Toppeladugård is a stately home in Genarp, Sweden, featuring a symmetrical two-story main building with extended wings on either side. The property is surrounded by gardens and parkland that create the setting for the manor.

Christina Piper acquired the property in 1720 and transformed a simple farm into a manor with a Baroque garden. The original three-story building deteriorated over time and was replaced by the current structure in the early 1920s.

The castle demonstrates how Swedish manor architecture evolved from Baroque designs toward Renaissance revival styles in the early 20th century. The architectural choices reflect the tastes of successive owners and shape how the property looks today.

The estate remains a private residence and is not open to casual visitors without advance arrangements. Those interested in visiting should contact the property owners beforehand to make formal requests to see the historical grounds.

The current building was completely rebuilt between 1918 and 1920 after the earlier three-story structure had become unusable. This represented a total reimagining of the estate in the architectural style of that era.
