Right by Lake Mälaren in Mariefred is Gripsholm Castle, built under King Gustav Vasa during the 16th century.

The castle, owned by the Royal Court, is today a museum that welcomes visitors to explore its rich past. 

In addition to its royal chambers, historic dungeons and the lush palace park, Gripsholm Castle is also home to the Swedish National Portrait Gallery, one of the world's oldest and largest portrait collections. Most of the portraits are of royalties over the centuries, but there are also other famous Swedes depicted, such as film director Ingmar Bergman and film star Greta Garbo.
