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.

Facts:
Forsmark's mill is a well-preserved Walloon mill dating back to at least the 1570s.
With good access to firewood and running water, the ironworks grew up in the middle of the forest in a part of Sweden.
The workers lived and worked in the limited area around the ironworks, and the mills had to keep up with the labor force and, through schools, healthcare and the like, improved the conditions of the employees. The picture shows the church with smaller houses for workers. The house to the right in the picture was a hospital. In the centrally located house lived foremen and better educated people.
For hundreds of years, Dannemora Mines was one of Sweden's largest financial assets. With the ore from there, the mills in Uppland during the 1600s developed into the country's most profitable industries. The term Walloon mill, which has become the collective name for the mills, comes from the many Walloons who were recruited to Uppland from today's Belgium for their professional skills as a blacksmith. The book Vallonbruk in Uppland lists 32 places as utility environments.

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.

The first house was build in the thirteenth century as a hunting lodge used by the counts and dukes of Gelre. The house was named 'Pauwenburcht' (Peacock Castle) because of the white peacocks they kept there. The dukes of Gelre used to wear the feathers on their helmets.
The present house was build in 1905 on the foundations of a house dating from the seventeenth century.
Staverden Castle is build on the foundations of a seventeenth century house.
At the backside of the house lies a small island in a pond. On the the island you can find the tomb of Eleonora. This Eleonora lived at Wildenborgh Castle, one of the eight castles of Vorden. She had a lover, who went on a crusade in the Holy Land. When he was away, another man wanted to gain her by force. When her lover returned home, he was killed by his rival. Eleonora wanted to escape this evil man and fled to Staverden, where a mighty knight lived, who gave her protection. She stayed there for the rest of her unhappy life, always dressed in black.
After her death she was buried on the island in the pond. On moonlit nights, the black lady is seen there, walking to and fro on the island, wringing her hands and lamenting about her lost love.
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.

Kreischer House, also known as Kreischer Mansion, is a historic home located at Charleston, Staten Island, New York. Built by German immigrant Balthasar Kreischer about 1885, it is a large, asymmetrically massed 2 1⁄2-story, wood-frame house in the American Queen Anne style. The rectangular house features spacious verandas, gables with jigsaw bargeboards, decorative railings, posts and brackets, tall chimneys, and a corner tower. It was one of two mansions built by Kreischer for his sons. The surviving house belonged to son Edward Kreischer, the other one had been his brother Charles.
On June 8, 1894, Edward B. Kreischer committed suicide by shooting himself in the right temple near his place of business. Since then, there have been claims that Kreischer has haunted the property.
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!!

There are a lot of movies, documentaries, and Halloween tours dedicated to the mysteries, horrors, and history of these mansions.
So, when I saw in the store this decoration for Halloween, I had to buy it and it was on sale. It has lots of creepy sounds and laughs. So, I decided to take this photo and one from my son's Skeletor action figure to make this image.
Happy Halloween! 🎃
