Åkerö Castle

To be privately owned

Åkerö is a castle in the municipality of Flen, Södermanland. In 1281, Ulf Karlsson sold Åkerö to the German Friedrich Stik Ting. Later, ownership passed to Judge Bo Nilsson, who retained it for almost 150 years. Åkerö Castle was built between 1752-1757 by Carl Gustaf Tessin. Carl Hårleman planned the construction. The castle is located on a rocky island on the northern shore of Lake Yngaren. In 1660, the castle partially burned down and was demolished in 1750. The new castle was built between 1752-1757. In 1769, Tessin sold Åkerö to his brother Governor Axel Wrede Sparre.
