Bosjökloster Castle is situated on the shore of Lake Ringsjön in Höör and is an architectural masterpiece. It was founded by the Benedictine Order in 1080. Also known as Bosjö Abbey, it was transformed into a castle in the 16th century and what now remain are just parts of the original building.
The skillfully maintained castle is located 30 km north of Lund on Road 23. It is believed that the land was donated by the ancestor of the Scanian noble family, Tord Thott. It is conveniently located near the Skånes Djurpark, which is again a major tourist attraction in the area.
Fondly known as the “Pearl of the Ring Lakes”, Bosjökloster is a wonderful white building that shimmers in the sun between two lakes. The serenity of the building brings everything around to rest and calm. Even the people hurrying around don’t remain untouched by the enigmatic ambience created by the beautiful building.
The view over the water is hypnotizing and the silhouettes of the old trees and the walls fascinate the visitors with the history of the generations who have lived and worked there. The white building stands attractive surrounded by water and the midsummer haze and spring sun accentuates its beauty.
