History and setting
A wooden house stood here in 1681. In 1937 the editor and author K Hilding Källén bought the estate, which became a school home and a guest and convalescent home as his historical collection grew. A new main building with wings was built after the sale in 1964. Interiors use Laura Ashley fabrics and natural-material textiles, and the grounds combine lake, forest, marble pillars and sculptures.
Getting there
The address is Hedlandet 7, 647 92 Mariefred, in the municipality of Strängnäs. The venue also helps organisers book transport.
