Lilla Nyckelviken, 18th-century manor house in Nacka Municipality, Sweden.
Lilla Nyckelviken is an 18th-century manor house in Nacka Municipality featuring a glass veranda and views toward Fjäderholmarna and Blockhusudden across the waters of Lilla Värtan. The building sits by the water with ample windows framing the surrounding landscape.
The property was part of Järla gård estate in the 1500s, with the earliest documented resident being Nils i Nyckelviken recorded in a 1653 tax register. The site has a long history of habitation stretching back several centuries.
The place connects to opera singer Jenny Lind, who spent summer 1865 here and performed from a beach stage while boats gathered to listen. The memory of those special performances remains part of the location's story.
The manor now serves as an event and conference venue available for gatherings and can be rented for various occasions. Visitors should check in advance whether spaces are available for viewing.
An inn once stood between the red house and manor, where artist Johan Tobias Sergel created a self-portrait drawing with friends in 1790. This sketch captures a fleeting moment from the life of the place.
