Stora Ängby

Stora Ängby, Manor house in Stockholm Municipality, Sweden.

Stora Ängby is a stone manor house in Norra Ängby, Bromma, built in the early 1690s and completed in 1696 for Baltzar Ehrenstolpe. It has light-plastered façades, a säteritak roof, pilaster-divided walls and a cross-vaulted entrance hall. East of it stands a 1660s wing that was the original main dwelling, and the old storehouse called Fatburen sits on a small hill northeast of the wing.

Ängby is first mentioned in writing in 1315. Around 1650 Åke Axelsson Natt och Dag bought the old village, and after his death in 1653 it was merged into Stora Ängby säteri; his widow Anna Cruus had a first main building erected, a red-painted one-storey timber house with six rooms and a vaulted cellar. In 1692 Baltzar Brandenburg (ennobled Ehrenstolpe) bought the estate and built today's stone main building, completed in 1696.

The name Ängby appears in writing as early as 1315. The estate's 1690s interiors survive: Giuseppe Marchi executed the stucco ceiling of the Stora salen in 1704, and the upper floor keeps arabesque paintings in the window niches, tiled stoves and baroque-painted door and window panels. The main building, wing and visthusbod are blue-marked by the Stockholm City Museum.

Stora Ängby stands at Stora Ängby allé 30–36 in Norra Ängby, Bromma, and the grounds are open to walkers. The main building, the 1660s wing and the old visthusbod called Fatburen, on a small hill northeast of the wing, are best seen from the outside; the wing's façades were re-rendered in 1946 and the main building restored in 1956. The estate once ran from Kyrksjön to Tyska botten on Lake Mälaren.

The wing east of the main building was the original manor house of the estate, built in the 1660s; when Baltzar Ehrenstolpe raised the present stone house in the 1690s, the older building was demoted to a side wing. Its facade was re-rendered in 1946, and in the 1940s it held four simple workers' dwellings.
