Ljunglöfska slottet

Ljunglöfska slottet is a mansion on the northern shore of Lake Mälaren in Bromma, featuring stone ornaments and surrounded by gardens with fountains. The building spans three floors with 29 rooms total, now used as an event and conference venue with modern facilities.

Tobacco merchant Knut Ljunglöf commissioned architect Gustaf Lindgren to design the residence, which was completed in 1893. The finished house was celebrated with King Oscar II, marking a pinnacle of prosperity for this industrial family.

The castle takes its name from the tobacco merchant who commissioned it, reflecting his prosperity and status. Its rooms reveal the refined lifestyle of a wealthy family from the late 1800s, with decorative choices that speak to their social position.

The site sits on the Mälaren shore and is easy to explore on foot, with pathways through the grounds leading to the water. The interior can be seen when booking an event or through special visits, with wireless internet available throughout.

A dedicated tower for making punsch once stood in the park, reflecting a popular Scandinavian drink tradition enjoyed by wealthy families. The grounds were also known for rare trees and elaborate flower beds that gave the estate a botanical garden quality.
