Ulvåsa

Ulvåsa

Ulvåsa is a castle by lake Boren in Östergötland, Sweden. The construction of the new castle began in the 16th century and it got its present architecture in the early 19th century.

The medieval Ulvåsa was situated next to the new castle. Today, there are ruins left of the manorhouse where St Bridget of Sweden lived most of her life.
