Description

Steninge Palace was completed in 1705 and has been named Sweden’s finest Baroque palace! The palace is located overlooking Mälaren, Sweden’s largest lake, and is southwest of Sigtuna, Sweden’s oldest town. Steninge’s history dates back to the 13th Century. However, Steninge Palace’s most noteworthy owners were the noble families Gyllenstierna (1649-1735) and von Fersen (1736-1839). Most notable was Axel von Fersen, who was infamous for his love affair with the French Queen Marie Antoinette. Photo taken with Sony A350. Hope you like it and thanks for watching :-)
