Blekhem, Manor house in Västervik Municipality, Sweden.

The Blekhem estate encompasses 4500 hectares of land, including 2700 hectares of forest, 350 hectares of farmland, and 700 hectares of water surfaces.

Originally owned by the Soop family, Blekhem became a royal estate under King Eric XIV in 1562 and remained under Crown ownership until Johan Skytte acquired it in 1612.

The main building, constructed between 1838 and 1842 during Baron Johan Nordenfalk's ownership, represents the Empire architectural style of the period.

The estate management office operates on Monday, Wednesday, and Thursday from 07:00 to 13:30, offering services related to property management and rental inquiries.

Blekhem maintains certification as a Wildlife Estate, supporting populations of elk, red deer, fallow deer, roe deer, wild boar, and mouflon through sustainable management practices.
