Chanced upon this castle during a visit to the Christmas market that was held on the estate. The outdoor Christmas market itself was simple with a small range of handicrafts, accessories, Christmas food and two food stalls with (hotdogs and burgers). Cost 100SEK for vehical entry to the grounds. The castle looks newer on the outside. The interiors of the building are antiquated, fascinating and feels almost medieval. Like many old castles, it is dim within as there are few windows that let in light. The walls and flooring are made of stone, giving the place an even icier effect in winter. There are 3 floors - a chapel and a smaller cafe on the ground floor, the second floor is a hall and on the third, there is another cafe that is larger and a restaurant. Although, there wasn't very much to do here, it was interesting to experience this castle that holds so much history. The staff are welcoming and cheerful and we had a nice fika of hot gulasch soup and tea. Recently renovated old castle that you can visit for free in your own. Nice old wine cellar and baroque church. Interesting information presented basically in every room. There is a little café on the ground floor. Lots of free parking and restaurants and cafés on the castle area. Good place for a day trip. Beautiful location to explore on a summer day. Check opening times carefully as this building is regularly closed for private functions like weddings. We decided to treat my wife's mother on a Fika att Wenngarn bageri for Mother's day. The day was beautiful and the setting perfect, so it was a shame the bakery did not live up to the expectations, delivering what could only be described as a mediocre experience. The pastries were nothing out of the ordinary, the shrimp sandwich was made with a far too soft bread, and the service at the counter was somewhat flaky. The bakery needs to step it up before it's worth making the trip there again. Venngarn Castle in Sigtuna is absolutely stunning, especially in this season. The outdoor space and the surrounding nature are so beautiful, and there’s a unique sense of calm in the atmosphere. Truly a peaceful escape! Absolutely stunning place surrounded by nature, they serve brunch on the weekends and cafes as well, recommended in spring and summer to enjoy the beautiful colours! Check the opening hours before coming. The Castle was closed however parking and garden were free of charge,Sunday morning Lovely spot to walk around with beautiful nature all around. Took a hike in the forest which had a great trail for hiking, mountain biking, riding. Very quiet and peaceful and I could have my dog off the leash. Several really nice cafes in the area - I can especially recommend Josephine Bakers cafe ❤️ Very pretty From Sigtuna it's 45 minutes walking. The palace is beautiful and the entrance free. You can also stay for a tea and a waffle (they have good waffle buffet for 50 kr) and enjoy it outside with a great view.
