Coffee break in the historic Visingsborg herb garden

In Wisingsborgs Trädgård, you can still experience the place where Visingsborg Castle's herb garden once stood. Here you can enjoy lunch, a Swedish ‘fika’ of coffee with maybe a pastry or bun, or a refreshing drink among the magnificent flowers and herbs both outdoors and inside the old, rustic farm building.

The garden has everything from spices and medicinal plants to colourful, ornamental flowers and fruit trees. A visit to Wisingsborgs Trädgård is a treat for all the senses – inhale the floral scents, feast your eyes on the colours and enjoy!

A historic garden

The garden is located on the same site as one of Visingsborg Castle's five historic gardens, and you can see Count Per Brahe the Younger's presence everywhere in the garden. The yellow flag fluttering in the wind is adorned with the Brahe coat of arms.

The entrance cottage is built of hand-crafted timber from the old Brahe estate, Lyckås, the wind vane on the roof is a copy of the one at Bogesund Castle in Uppland where Per Brahe died in 1680.

Good food in a flower-filled setting

In summer, there is a café inside the garden, where you can sit with a home baked bun or pastry and enjoy the beautiful garden. The garden menu also offers a selection of tasty salads, prawn sandwiches, salmon platters and burgers for lunch. Drinks include coffee, soft drinks, beer, wine and cocktails.

Try their popular shrimp sandwiches, pulled pork burgers, apple pie or a slice of ryttarkaka.

If you want to have your wedding, wedding party or birthday party here, then it is possible to book the garden.
