Aske Manor

Aske Manor

Aske Manor is a manor house in Upplands-Bro Municipality, Stockholm County (Sweden).

The history of the estate goes back to at least the 14th century, when it is mentioned in written sources for the first time. During the 17th century it belonged to the De la Gardie family, and during the 18th century to families Olivecrantz, Wallrawe, Drufva, Leijonstedt, Ingelotz and Fleetwood. In 1799 it was sold to C. G. Sehmann, who built the present main building to designs by architect Charles Bassi. Today it houses a conference venue.[1]
