Trollenäs Castle

Eslöv, Sweden

Trollenäs Castle is known since the 14th century, and has been in the ownership of only two families, Thott and Trolle. Originally known as Näs Castle, it was renamed after Trolle family in the 18th century. The current building goes back to 1559 and was in the late 19th century renovated by architect Ferdinand Meldahl to resemble a French Renaissance castle.

There is also a medieval church, Näs old church, near the castle. The castle is open to the public, offering facilities for weddings, conferences, dinners, and other festivities. In the park there is a café.

Beautiful and very well looked after Trollenäs castle. Stunning grounds/park. The slots cafe serves home baked pastries. Well worth a visit

A well maintained castle, clean cut grass, shaped trees and has a great walk circles around the Castle for small strolls with kids or a relaxing walk in the garden and the woods around. The place is so welcoming. It has a cute little café where everything is home baked and from the local farms. Best time to visit is during an evening of a sunny day when the Café is open.

Wonderful and misterious. The garden is open to the visitors and it's beautiful.

Warning the new policy states you can only buy fika if you buy a sandwich. Seemingly to reduce numbers. Seems to have worked was quiet when we visited and we for one won't be coming back until they change the policy.

Rosenborg Castle

Rosenborg Palace was built in the period 1606-34 as Christian IV’s summerhouse just outside the ramparts of Copenhagen. Christian IV was very fond of the palace and often stayed at the castle when he resided in Copenhagen, and it was here that he died in 1648. After his death, the palace passed to his son King Frederik III, who together with his queen, Sophie Amalie, carried out several types of modernisation.

The last king who used the place as a residence was Frederik IV, and around 1720, Rosenborg was abandoned in favor of Frederiksborg Palace.Through the 1700s, considerable art treasures were collected at Rosenborg Castle, among other things items from the estates of deceased royalty and from Christiansborg after the fire there in 1794.

Soon the idea of a museum arose, and that was realised in 1833, which is The Royal Danish Collection’s official year of establishment.
