Elghammar Castle
Elghammar Castle is a castle in Södermanland County, Sweden. Initially owned by the Kruse family of Elghammar, then by Johan Adolf Welander, the existing manor was sold in 1807 to Marshall Curt von Stedingk, who ordered new constructions in the French Empire style.
His son died in 1875 and the property was inherited by a daughter, who married the 5th Duke of Otrante. The castle -- or manor/Italian villa as the owner, the Duchess Christina d'Otrante, prefers it to be perceived -- is surrounded by forests and a farm.
