Things to do at Aspenäs Herrgård
The manor is located in an idyllic setting right on the lakeside in Aspen. The manor has a large lawn and several social rooms that invite you and your party to wonderful activities during all months of the year.
A modern facility with a fantastic historical heritage. The manor's walls and the wall on the farm date back to the early 1400th century. A gift from Johan III, who gave the land to Brynte Birgersson in 1569. On the top floor of the Manor there is a room named Tellanders, after the Tellander couple who were the last couple to live and own the manor.
