Simontorp säteri

Simontorp säteri, Manor house in Sjöbo Municipality, Sweden.

Simontorp säteri is a manor house near Blentarp in Sjöbo Municipality, Skåne. The long, low main building has a white facade and a dark pitched roof, with rectangular windows of dark panes in white frames and a central dark doorway. A dark metal double gate with circular scrollwork is set into the low stone wall in front, and a taller dark-roofed wing with red wall panels stands to the right. The main building was erected in the 1700s and given its present form in an 1860s restoration.

This estate traces its roots to the 1500s, with its current form shaped by construction and renovation during the 1700s and 1800s. The 20th century brought new directions in how the property was managed and developed.

Simontorp takes its name from a person named Simon and the suffix -torp, meaning a croft or smallholding. Since 1941 the estate has been run by the Rausing family, and Ruben Rausing, founder of Tetra Pak, personally initiated much of its activity. The property is a working estate, not a visitor attraction, with agriculture, forestry, game management and aquaculture.

Simontorp säteri is a working estate near Blentarp in Sjöbo Municipality, not a site open for tours, so the grounds and buildings are seen from the surrounding roads. The main house stands at the end of a drive behind a row of trees, with a dark metal double gate set into the low stone wall in front. The 750 hectares of farmland, forest and ponds are private land.

The estate features a large wildlife enclosure with red deer and wild boars, which is an unusual addition to a manor property. It also hosts one of Sweden's largest facilities for breeding aquarium fish, creating an industrial contrast within the rural setting.
