Stensnäs herrgård

The three-story manor features symmetrical pavilions, round-arched windows on the lower level, and straight windows on the upper floors with profiled trim separating them.

Built in the 1700s, the estate belonged to Christoffer Andersson Grip, governor of Kalmar Castle, before passing through notable families including Gyllenstierna and Lewenhaupt.

The manor demonstrates Swedish architectural evolution through its design elements, including Empire-style wings with rectangular plans and pyramid roofs.

A 550-meter straight avenue leads to the main building, connecting to a dock on Storsjön lake and providing access to the three-terraced garden.

The property incorporates two free-standing lateral wings and a central section topped with a lanternin, modifications added during different construction periods.
