Servants' quarters

Servants' quarters
Built at the turn of the last century these are two of the servants' quarters at Tyresö Castle. Three families working at the castle lived in each of the two houses. The houses were known as "Parkvillorna". The people that lived here were "statare", contract-workers that ran the farm at the castle. The park ranger and the coachman also lived here. Snapped this photo after my visit to Notholmen.

Not a bad place to live. Great landscape.

Are they still hiring? ;-)

They probably are Rowen. You might get a job at the restaurant or at the cafe. Sadly I don't think they will give you an apartment in any of these houses.
