Linnaeus' Hammarby

Hammarby is a rural 18th century estate, bought by Carl Linnaeus in 1758. In the well preserved manor-house you will find Linnaeus’ study with unique plant illustrations. Many of the plants that Linnaeus grew still flourish in the lush park. From the hill above the farm you can enjoy the scenery and dream yourself back to landscape of the 18th century. The manor with a café and exhibitions is open May through September, the surrounding cultural reserve all year round.
