Tullesbo, Manor house in Sjöbo, Sweden
Tullesbo is a manor house located in Sjöbo Municipality, featuring a Rococo design with approximately 25 rooms arranged across the main building. The property sits on a substantial estate positioned between Öved and Bjärsjölagård and shows how wealthy families lived during the 1700s.
The property has roots reaching back to the 1300s, though the current building was designed by architect Jean Eric Rehn in the Rococo style and completed in 1780. Rehn was responsible for several other important residences in the region during this period.
The name Tullesbo appears in medieval records as Thulisbo, Thulesbo and Tulesbo, and the estate was a noble seat from the mid-14th century. Since the mid-1700s it has shared owners with Övedskloster, the Ramel family. Since 2014 the building has housed the Center for Evolutionary Consciousness, a centre for ecology, yoga and spiritual development.
The manor is situated in a rural setting between two small villages and is best reached by car. Visitors should plan enough time to walk around the grounds and view the exterior and surrounding landscape.
Tullesbo was built as a widow's residence for the Ramel family, who had owned the estate since Hans Ramel bought it in 1753, but it was never actually used as one. Since 2006 the grounds have housed a large equestrian facility, and since 2014 the house has served as the seat of the Center for Evolutionary Consciousness, a centre for ecology, yoga and spiritual development.
