Ebba Brahes lusthus, 17th century manor pavilion in Bockhammar, Sweden

The pink octagonal summer house stands on a small island within the river, featuring a curved roof covered with wooden shingles.

Built in 1636 during the Swedish iron industry period, the pavilion belonged to noblewoman Ebba Brahe who managed several ironworks in Västmanland.

The pavilion represents Swedish aristocratic architecture and serves as a testament to the relationship between nobility and industrial development in Bergslagen.

Visitors can access the site through marked paths and obtain additional information at Café Bockhammar, which maintains regular opening hours.

The weather vane on top of the structure displays the year 1636, making this pavilion the oldest preserved summer house in Sweden.
