Börringekloster Castle

Börringekloster Castle, Castle in Svedala Municipality, Sweden.

Börringekloster Castle is a long, symmetrical three-storey building with a pale yellow facade and white trim, built in 1763 in the classical style. Its dark hipped roof carries four tall square chimneys with black caps, and two rows of white-framed windows sit above a projecting central bay with a dark double door, a small balcony and a round window.

A Benedictine monastery from the 1100s previously occupied this site before religious institutions lost their lands. The current building rose in 1763 as a new residence and has dominated the landscape ever since.

The name Börringekloster preserves the memory of the Benedictine priory founded around 1150, later also called St. Mary's Priory after its dedication to the Virgin Mary. The estate became a joint county with Fiholm Castle in Södermanland in 1791, when the Beck-Friis family received the Swedish title of Count. The castle itself is closed to the public, but a farm shop on the estate sells locally produced goods.

The castle is closed to the public, so visits are limited to viewing the exterior from the grounds. A farm shop on the estate sells locally produced goods. The building stands near the E65 highway, opposite the Sturup exit, by Klosterviken.

The priory stood on the island of Byrdingø in Börringe Lake, on land Valdemar II of Denmark had once set aside for hunting. No trace of the monastic buildings survives; only a few fragments of the monastic church are kept in the Börringe burial ground. The estate passed to the Beck-Friis family in 1745, and in 1791 it became an entailed county together with Fiholm Castle in Södermanland.
