Stjärnhov Manor

Stjärnhov Manor is an estate situated beside Lake Naten with a main building displaying architectural features typical of Swedish construction from the late 18th century. The property spans approximately 400 hectares and currently operates through forestry, farming, and recreational activities.

The estate was originally known as Nässelsta and received its current name in 1815, with origins tracing back to 1368. The name change marked a new phase in the development of the property.

The estate represents a lasting tradition of Swedish land stewardship, with the surrounding landscape bearing traces of human habitation from prehistoric times. The grounds themselves tell the story of generations who have lived and worked here.

The estate offers horseback riding facilities and lodging options for visitors wishing to explore the rural surroundings. The best time to visit is during warmer months when the lake and woodland setting is most welcoming.

During construction work, two old wells and foundations from a medieval village were discovered beneath the manor grounds. These findings reveal that human settlement existed at this location long before the current estate house was built.
