Skönabäck, Manor house in Skurup Municipality, Sweden

Skönabäck is a manor house in Skurup Municipality surrounded by agricultural land, forest, and a lake covering the property. The main building displays architectural features from different periods, while the entire estate operates as a working agricultural enterprise with modern facilities.

Skönabäck was separated from the Brodda estate in 1811 and belonged to the Sjöcrona and Smith families, the Danish countess Danner and the Kemner family. Baron Gustaf af Ugglas then bought it, and it stayed in the af Ugglas family until the Mörstedt family acquired it generations later.

The name Skönabäck combines the Swedish words for "beautiful" and "stream". The estate was separated from the Brodda estate in 1811 and passed through the Sjöcrona, Smith, Kemner and af Ugglas families; the Danish countess Danner also owned it. The forest around Borgasjön became a nature conservation area in 1982.

The estate is actively farmed and partially used as residential space, which means access to certain areas may be limited. Visitors should inquire ahead and respect boundaries to avoid disrupting ongoing activities on the property.

The main building stands on the dam that created Borgasjön in a former ravine, so it shows one storey toward the lake and two on the front side. The woodland around the lake became the Skönabäck nature reserve in 1982.
