Knut Almlöf

Knut Almlöf (9 February 1829 Stockholm – 3 January 1899, Almnäs, Gripsholm), was a Swedish stage actor.

His mother died when he was nine, and the year after, his father remarried the celebrated Charlotta Ficker of the Royal Dramatic Theatre.

She encouraged Knut in his interest for the theatre, and after his graduation in 1848, they convinced his father about his preference.

In 1874–77, he was joint principal of the Royal Dramatic Training Academy with his wife.

He took the death of his wife in 1882 very hard and retired from the theatre, but continued to act as a guest artist until 1897.
