History

edit

The building and its surroundings has traditionally been associated with Degerfors Ironworks and the Camitz family[2] since the 17th century. J. Camitz enabled the creation of a park and a corps de logis at the estate.[3]

The manor house has ever since its completion, and the era of the Camitz family, been inhabited by the different managers of the local ironwork. Including members of Swedish aristocratic families, e.g. the Camitz, Strokirk[4] and af Chapman families.[2]

In 1936, John Bengtson acquired the estate.[3]

For some time during the 1930s, its park was used as a site for scouting, made possible by the Bengtson family.[5]
