Övralid

Övralid is a manor house located north of Motala in Östergötland County, Sweden.

[1] Övralid was erected between 1923 and 1925 by poet, writer, and Nobel Prize laureate Verner von Heidenstam (1859–1940).

The building is shown with guided tours in the summer and the personal belongings of Heidenstam can be seen where he left them at the time of his death.

[4][5] After Heidenstam's death, the original large land area was sold off.

Today the manor is operated as a museum by the Övralid Foundation (Övralidsstiftelsen) which was founded in accordance with Heidenstam's will.
