Långvinds Herrgård — Ein Aussergewöhnliches Herrenhaus aus Den 1890ER Jahren an der Küste von Hälsingland

A building that takes the breath away of all who behold it – Långvinds Herrgård, with origins dating back to 1799, is an extraordinary architectural creation, lavishly adorned with intricate ornamental woodwork. Wilhelm Söderhielm, an ironworks proprietor who owned the manor between 1873 and 1913, commissioned a magnificent and extensive transformation, completed in 1896. More than a century later, a meticulous restoration has returned the house to its former splendour, thanks to the dedication of owners with a genuine passion for its heritage and the expertise of skilled craftsmen.

The manor is substantial in scale, with 28 rooms arranged across two principal floors, together with a converted attic and basement. An elegant succession of rooms, drawing rooms and grand reception halls unfolds throughout the house, where traditional Swedish tiled stoves, dado panelling, coffered ceilings, painted ceiling decorations, wallpapers and parquet flooring create an atmosphere of extraordinary beauty. The interiors are truly distinctive and have been exceptionally well cared for.

Although currently used as a private residence, the manor’s remarkably generous proportions offer a wealth of possibilities for commercial and cultural activities within an authentic historic setting, both indoors and throughout the grounds. A restaurant, holiday accommodation, Airbnb rentals, courses and retreats, exhibitions, concerts and other cultural events are just some of the potential uses.

Långvinds Bruk is a historic ironworking community whose origins date back to 1687. The former ironworks village is home to a café, an industrial heritage museum, a hostel and a chapel.

Långvind also boasts no fewer than twelve kilometres of coastline, with several lakes nearby, offering a variety of opportunities for swimming, fishing and canoeing. The surrounding countryside is equally inviting, with walking and cycling routes winding through magnificent and remarkably varied natural landscapes.

Despite its peaceful setting, the estate is easily accessible thanks to its proximity to the E4 motorway and its location midway between Söderhamn and Hudiksvall. Arrival by boat is also possible, with a visitor mooring at the historic steamboat jetty in Långvinds Bruk.
