Fredriksbergs herrgård

Fredriksbergs herrgård sits on a stone terrace overlooking Döderhultsdalen valley with wooden facades and classical columns framing its design. The property includes several connected structures that together form a substantial country estate from around 1800.

Captain Peter Reinke Cederbaum established the estate in 1784 as a private residence on crown land. The city of Oskarshamn acquired it in 1888 and gradually converted it to public use.

The manor represents how Swedish nobles lived during the Gustavian period, with architectural details that show the wealth and status of 18th-century landowners. Walking through the rooms gives a sense of the social world these families inhabited.

The site houses a restaurant called Herrgårdsköket that serves dinner and hosts cooking events throughout the year. A museum managed by the city's cultural department is also located on the property and open to visitors.

This estate was the largest farm in Oskarshamn during the early 1800s and included several smaller farming properties within its bounds. This scale reveals how much agricultural land a single noble family could control.
