Originally a fortification of the local diocese, with the sweeping reforms of our Gustav I. Vasa, the nearly deposed, who made the monarchy heritable rather than elective of the landed gentry, converted the country to protestantism and appropriated church property and made Sweden a European power, it fell to various favourites of the court and caretakers who oversaw its expansion as an impressive receiving stage for visiting dignitaries. https://drive.google.com/uc?export=view&id=1JnhXBZrabsnrGliqQq4Wytdq9ZRmooehhttps://drive.google.com/uc?export=view&id=1rPjKZez3EiosjH49ce8QN08_FcHX2FB3 Today it is a national monument and hosts a series of outdoor operas in the courtyard during the summer.
