The tower of the castle is part of a defensive castle from the 1450s.
Swedish King Gustav Wasa made the castle a big fortress, with walls, moats.
Gustav Wasa's oldest son, heir to the throne, was held here by his brothers, and died of food poisoning. in the history tale , poisoned via pea soup by his brothers.
In the 1700s the castle was owned by De Geer, owner of the other major iron factory in Uppland, and converted it into a baroque castle.
In this day and age, it is privately owned, but open to the public to visit.
The building is located by a lake, surrounded by a beautiful park, with ponds, greenhouses and orangeries.

Visited my photo friend in Söderköping for two days.
We traveled around the country to photograph.
Near her home is this fairy tale castle, originally from the 16th century, but the current building is significantly younger.
The castle is called Ekenäs, and many strange words and myths are about it.
One of them is: Greve Mauritz Vellingk has got rid of secret actions and the boy who helped him was then wrapped in a secretarial basement not to come out and tell the secret. The renovated room, which has never been opened, is called "Nisses hole". It is said that if space opens, a major accident will hit both the castle and its owners.
Another is on the so-called Hönsagumman, which is said to have saved the castle from hostile attacks and therefore become portrayed, which otherwise was unusual for service people. She still keeps a watchful eye on everyone who enters the castle.

November is a month we could skip here in the north. In my part of Sweden, no snow in sight of a couple of months. Gray and naughty outside, dark already at 4 afternoon.
Lucky that some of my friends upload flowers every day that light up my morns. And that I can play with any image, looking for light and contrasts.
My friends Rod and Di send me this poem. Thank you dear.
No sun - no moon!
No morn - no noon -
No dawn - no dusk - no proper time of day.
No warmth, no cheerfulness, no healthful ease,
No comfortable feel in any member -
No shade, no shine, no butterflies, no bees,
No fruits, no flowers, no leaves, no birds! -
November!
Thomas Hood
Happy Friday.

This is from a walloon ironworks environment.
Walloon ironworks is a collective name for a number of industrial communities in northern Uppland, constructed in the 1600s.
A financier, Louis De Geer in Amsterdam, imported labor to Sweden, Walloons of Wallonia in southern Belgium current, which was then a world leader in the iron industry. Walloon ironworks in Sweden came in this way to become the world leader by, among other things because of the high quality of the iron ore from the Dannemora mines.
This was the foundation for the industrialization of the farming community Sweden.
The ironworks was strictly limited. The workers were given housing, food, education, healthcare, but few opportunities to move. For each work home was a building for livestock as cattle, pigs, chickens.
Nowadays, it is an industrial memory of an era that is almost forgotten.

Captured a couple of years ago, this image features a grand old mansion silhouetted against the sunset sky.
This is a landmark in our city and was originally built and owned by a successful entrepreneur from a bygone era.
Taken with my iPhone 11...
This western-style mansion with a rose garden is situated behind the lookout for the Japanese garden. It was completed in 1917 and proved its high seismic capacity as it was not affected by the Kantou Earthquake in 1923 that devastated Tokyo.
It is renovated as a cafe serving coffee and cakes after spending a few decades as a haunted mansion.
It was designed by Josiah Conder, a British who was hired by the Meiji government as a professor of architecture, married a Japanese woman and spent the rest of his life in Japan as an architect. He did not only designed western-style architectures, but also educated many Japanese architects.
He is regarded as the father of Japanese modern architecture.
Beautiful views of the rear of the mansion... we always eat lunch on the covered patio... the food is delicious!!
Another reason why this is my favorite place to be!!
The Cutting Estate, located on the east side of the Connetquot River, was purchased in 1880 from Pierre Lorillard, by the Cutting family and in 1886 the mansion was built.

On our holiday to Portugal we came across a large house built in the 18th century..it seemed to be deserted and I longed to go inside to see the interior...when we moved to the village where it was, we got to know the son of the owner and were treated to a tour of this grand old mansion that once was the place where the local bishop stayed when he visited ...there was also a grand ballroom, and a room for gambling with many stories associated with it...a truly amazing place.
