Vallstanäs herrgård, Manor house in Sigtuna Municipality, Sweden
Vallstanäs herrgård is a manor house with a main building and two connected wings, located in northern Stockholm County near Lake Fysingen. The structures display a blend of classical and neo-renaissance architectural elements.
The estate originated in 1612 when it was transformed from Valsta village into a noble residence. Major renovation work around 1814 gave it the architectural style it displays today.
The property shows how Swedish building styles changed over centuries and came together in one place. Visitors walking around can see how owners shaped their homes according to different tastes and times.
The property is privately owned and requires special permission to visit. It is situated in a rural setting north of Stockholm, accessible by local roads.
A theater once stood in the park and operated until the 1950s, revealing the estate's role as a gathering place for entertainment and social events. This shows the property was far more than just a residence during its heyday.
