Berga, Manor house in Haninge Municipality, Sweden

The red brick and granite Berga Castle stands within an architectural complex comprising seven distinct buildings across the Swedish countryside.

The location holds ancient roots with Bronze Age burial cairns and Iron Age grave fields, with first written records dating from 1401.

The estate transformed from a private residence of industrialist Helge Axelsson Johnson into a foundation dedicated to cultural purposes after 1941.

The Swedish state acquired Berga in 1944, establishing a naval base and converting the castle for military training and administrative functions.

King Gustaf V participated in organized hunts at Berga, where various wildlife roamed the designated hunting grounds of the estate.
