Stora Torp, Manor house in Örgryte, Sweden

Stora Torp is a stone manor house located north of the Delsjö nature reserve near Gothenburg. The building was designed by architect Axel Kumlien and combines residential and office spaces on extensive grounds.

The estate was originally known as Torpit and managed by the Leijonhufvud family before passing to new owners over time. In the 1900s, Gothenburg acquired the property and carried out extensive renovations.

The name Torpit or Torpett was used for the estate until 1777, when it became Stora Torp. A 1783 auction notice in Göteborgs Allehanda described a large garden with four vegetable quarters and nearly 200 fruit trees. Today the house is rented as offices, and one tenant is Friluftsfrämjandet.

Stora Torp stands by Alfred Wigelius väg in Örgryte, north of the Delsjöområdet nature reserve, with Delsjö golf course next door. The building itself is offices and not open to the public, so visits are limited to the grounds and the surrounding paths. The fourth tee of the golf course holds the grave where the estate owners buried their hunting dogs.

An observation tower called Blå Tornet was built in the late 1800s on a nearby hill. The tower offers views across the surrounding landscape and is an often-overlooked feature of the property.
