Lejondals slott

Lejondals slott is a manor house built in the 1890s situated beside a lake and featuring towers, turrets, and a blend of English and Scandinavian architectural styles. The building combines diverse influences into a distinctive appearance by the water.

The manor traces back to Queen Philippa of England, who owned the estate in the 1400s when it was called Bro-Lövsta, before the Lejonhuvud family renamed it. That name change established the identity that endures today.

The house carries the names of the Sparre and De Geer families, visible in family crests and monograms throughout the rooms. These personal marks tell the story of the people who lived here and shaped the place.

The manor provides accommodations and spaces where you can relax and spend time with family or friends. Its lakeside setting makes it a place to recharge away from the city.

A family living here refused to baptize their children in the 1700s due to religious beliefs, creating an unusual conflict that marked the property's past. This episode shows how personal conviction and authority clashed during that era.
