Tjolöholm Castle (Swedish: Tjolöholms slott) is a country house, built 1898-1904, in Halland, Sweden. It is located on a peninsula in the Kungsbacka Fjord on the Kattegat coast. Tjolöholm Castle was designed by architect Lars Israel Wahlman, in a style inspired by Tudor architecture.
In 1991, it became a registered historic building.[1]
In 2010, Danish film director Lars von Trier shot the exterior scenes of the film Melancholia at the castle.[2]
