Gripenberg Castle

It is considered to be the biggest wooden castle in Sweden and one of the oldest that remain today as well.

[1] Gripenberg was built in 1663 as a hunting seat for the field marshal Carl Gustaf Wrangel (1613-1676).

By the end of the 18th century the manor was bought by Samuel von Söderling and today remains in the possession of members of his family.

[2][3] The manor consists of a wide main length and tower buildings in the four corners.

The facility includes eight one-story wings that house residences, warehouses and storerooms.
