Stora Nyckelviken, Manor house and vacation home in Nacka, Sweden

The yellow two-story wooden house features exterior panels painted to create the appearance of stone construction, with extensions added during the 1760s.

Herman Petersen, director of the East India Company, commissioned the construction of Stora Nyckelviken in 1746 as his summer residence near Stockholm.

The red-painted southern wing houses the Nacka local heritage museum, displaying exhibitions about regional history, traditional crafts, and domestic life artifacts.

The estate functions as an event venue with a summer cafe, offering guided tours on Sundays when the local heritage museum opens to visitors.

The property exemplifies the summer residences built by wealthy non-aristocratic merchants known as Skeppsbroadeln, who gained influence through shipping and mining ventures.
