Read moreIn this baroque castle, one of the most famous in Sweden, rooms dating from its construction have been preserved in their original state. Here, Carl Gustaf Wrangel (1613-1676), potentate and big spender, and his wife Anna Margareta von Haugwitz (1622-1673), created a splendid residence. Coming from the aristocracy, they sought to understand the world by collecting art and antiquities as well as specimens of nature. The apartments house remarkable collections of paintings as well as furniture and textiles.
