Sweden - Helsingborg, Sofiero Slott

Sofiero slott (Sofiero Castle) lies a few kilometers north of Helsingborg. This country mansion was built in 1864 for Crown Prince Oscar II and Crown Princess Sofia (of Nassau-Weilburg). It has long been used as a summer residence for the Swedish royal family. It was expanded to its current size between 1874 and 1876, after crown prince Oscar had been crowned king Oscar II of Sweden and Norway.

The castle lies in a flowering oasis of 10.000 plants, and 300 different varieties of rhododendron and various gardens; including an English and a Victorian garden.

Until the year of 1973 Sofiero slott was the official summer residence of the royal family. King Gustaf VI Adolf donated the castle after his death to the city of Helsingborg. Nowadays the former palace can be visited and a part is used by a cafe/restaurant.
