Nääs Manor, Manor building in Nyköping Municipality, Sweden
Nääs Manor is a country house in Nyköping Municipality set within a large estate featuring open grounds, cultivated fields, and several historic outbuildings. The main villa displays ornate ceiling stuccowork and sits surrounded by managed gardens and wooded areas.
The house was completed in the 1680s under the Gyllenstierna family's ownership. The Gripenstedt family later inhabited it for generations before transferring it to regional and national institutions in 1984.
The name comes from Finnish, meaning "meadow," reflecting the landscape where it stands. Visitors can observe how the estate functions as a living connection to the area's heritage.
The grounds are expansive with multiple areas to explore, so comfortable walking shoes are recommended. A former distillery building now functions as a hostel, offering overnight stays for those wishing to spend more time in the area.
A hunting room preserves its original furnishings from the 19th century, while other sections of the house were deliberately left closed off. This contrast between accessible and sealed spaces reveals how the house was used differently across various periods.
