Aske Manor

The neoclassical manor stands with its white facade and symmetrical design near Stockholm, featuring architectural elements from early 19th-century Swedish construction.

Built in 1802 by ironmaster Gustav Sehmann, the manor changed ownership through centuries, starting from medieval times when it belonged to the De la Gardie family.

The manor represents the architectural vision of Charles Bassi, incorporating Italian Renaissance influences into traditional Swedish manor design principles.

Villa Aske functions as a conference center with 88 rooms, 7 meeting spaces, and dining facilities that accommodate up to 200 guests near Arlanda Airport.

This manor remains the sole Swedish building designed by Italian-born Finnish architect Charles Bassi, marking a distinct period in Nordic architectural development.
