Sweden is a beautiful place to visit and its beauty is increased by many castles located at various places. Different cities house different castles that are built with different types of architecture. Krapperup Castle is one of the most beautiful castles in the city of Helsingborg that is also a very famous landmark in the city.
The castle is one of the oldest and powerful mansions in Scania that dates back to the 1200s. Farms and villages around Scania, including Arild and Mölle, were governed by Krapperup. Over the centuries, the castle has been possessed by many Danish and Swedish families.
The castle was used as an estate once and many of the buildings are still used in different ways. Kullens Konstförening (Art Association) hall is located in the old stables, which organizes art and handicraft exhibitions every year, in conjunction with Konstrundan (Art Circuit). The old cow shed is used as a music hall that hosts the music week during July every year. Apart from these, other cultural events like theatre performances and concerts are also held during summer.
The castle has beautiful gardens around, which are open to public all year round. The beautiful red castle is surrounded by rose beds, perennial beds, box plantations and many rhododendrons. A small goldfish pond near the Sound is a major attraction at the place. The place is visited by many tourists all through the year.
