Julita manor

Julita is a manor estate in Sörmland, Sweden, featuring several preserved buildings, historical interiors, gardens, and a park beside Lake Öljaren. The property contains roughly 15 different structures that showcase the architecture and organization of early 1900s Swedish country life.

The estate was established in its present form during the early 1900s and has maintained this configuration. The different buildings reflect how large country properties operated and were organized during that period.

The manor operates as part of the Nordiska museet and displays furniture, textiles, and household items that show how people lived in Swedish countryside estates. Walking through the rooms, you can see how daily routines and family life unfolded in these rural settings.

The park is open throughout the year, though the buildings and guided tours operate from late May through September. It helps to check in advance when tours are scheduled, as they run only on certain days.

The property includes seven specialized gardens, among them an orchard with 200 different apple varieties. A separate peony garden documents how people cultivated and selected plants in earlier times.
