Läckö Castle
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Läckö Castle (in Swedish: Läckö Slott ) is a medieval castle in Sweden, located on an island in the lake Vänern. A bishop called Brynolf Algotsson built Läckö Castle in 1298 originally as a fort that consisted of two or three houses surrounded by a wall. After a fire during the 1470s, the fort was expanded by bishop Brynolf Gerlachsson. Additional construction was made in the 17th century when the castle belonged to Magnus Gabriel De la Gardie.
