Best places: Castles in Vingåker, Sweden

Lakeside castle housing ornate, 16th-century interiors, state portrait collection & lavish theater.

King Gustav I ordered the construction of this heavily fortified castle in 1545.

👍👍 A beautiful estate, the house itself is interesting to walk in (fee was 100 kr pp). You can walk the grounds for free. The moat surrounding the estate is ideal for a picnic or Fika at the cafe

👍👍 Great for kids and stroller friendly

Riverside medieval castle, a former prison & royal residence, with guided tours & regular events.

Richly-furnished 18th-century, royal summer palace & gardens, open for guided tours from May-Seop.

👍👍 Gorgeous castle which is quite well hidden. On the drive up to the castle you drive over a hill and suddenly there's this massive castle visible through the trees. We visited in September, but in May there's a knights show, according to the markings of a vehicle parked nearby. It's definitely worth...

👍👍 Really worth seeing. By foot you can walk until 100 m from the castle . Park is open and free 10-18 all days. Guided tours are few. The nearby oak forest has many deers in a gated piece of the forest . The castle itself is one of the nicest in Sweden with decorative towers and beautiful windows.

👍👍 We visited on the afternoon of 06.08.19. We had a fabulous tour, our guide was nothing short of brilliant. She had to deal with Swedish, Austrian and English visitors and managed with real style. I wish I could remember her name. The house is an extraordinary time capsule and well worth a visit, you...

👍👍 We made it last day of the season- September 5th. Was beautiful weather to explore the grounds, including orchard full of apples and an ornamental flower garden. Beautiful piece of land and history, including store, cafe, museum and the mansion. Just divine. Tour was in Swedish, but we got a handout...

Luxurious hotel in an 18th-century castle, featuring a garden, a spa & conference rooms.

👍👍 We visited a haunted place that has several scary stories. I can not guarantee that you will experience the fear, but there are many of these....

👍👍 Ett mycket fint slott. Fin natur trevligt att promenera i området. Det är synd att det inte går att besöka inuti.

12th-century castle with a museum showcasing textiles, silver, cathedral models & other artifacts.

😐 Seems to be a nice castle, it was not open for a guided tour, we will revisit when it's open

😐 Ok

👍 The inn at Löfstad Slott offers high-quality food at a decent price. The restaurant is situated the right wing of the castle itself, offering a very historic environment with views out onto the castle courtyard and gardens. When it comes to the food it was beautifully laid out, the portions were lar...
