Thureholm Castle

Leaving the picturesque town of Trosa we stopped for a quick look and a photo of a castle. Seven hundred years ago there stood another castle here called Gäddeholm. In 1640 a new castle was built on the same spot. It didn't last very long as it was burned down during the Russian Pillage of 1719. Ten years after that the construction started of the current castle, Thureholm. Named after Thure Gabriel Bielke. Today the castle is owned by the Bonde family who also owns Hörningsholms castle.

Ten reasons to visit Trosa

As promised, ten photos showing why so many people visit Trosa, Världens ände. Because of the small town charm. And a walk along the Trosa river where you can see all the old houses along the canal.

A picturescue town

After the visit to Tullgarn Palace we continued our Sörmland trip with a visit to the picturescue tourist attraction town that is Trosa, you can drive here from Stockholm in one hour. Nicknamed Världens ände, the world's end! It is an old city, it dates back 800 years. It is close to the coast and back in the day most people that lived here made their earnings from fishing. It is easy to get lost here for a few hours walking up and down the old streets. These photos shows the hotel, the library and a few traditional houses. I will show you the "real" Trosa attraction after the weekend.
