Havgårds säteri

Havgårds säteri is a manor house in Svedala Municipality, designed by Danish castle architect Henri Glaesel between 1909 and 1911. The building stands near Havgårdssjön lake and displays the architectural style characteristic of early 20th century Swedish estates.

The estate traces its origins to medieval times when a fortress occupied the island of Turestorpsö in Havgårdssjön lake. From 1593 to 1938, this property belonged to Jordberga Manor, linking it to a broader network of regional estates.

The property represents traditional Swedish estate management, connecting local agricultural heritage with aristocratic architectural design through multiple generations of ownership.

The manor complex with its buildings and grounds is accessible for viewing and shows construction techniques from the early 20th century. The location sits in a quiet rural area near the lake and is easy to reach for visitors interested in architecture and estates.

The medieval island of Turestorpsö, where the original fortress stood, is now a peninsula in the lake, showing how the landscape transformed over time. This geographic shift is a quiet reminder of the site's long past.
