Welcome to Läckö Castle

A unique cultural and natural experience. Stay at Naturum Vänerskärgården - Victoriahuset, eat at the restaurant and visit Läckö Castle with garden.

Läckö Castle is located on Kållandsö in Lidköping municipality in Västergötland. The castle is located on a headland in the Ekens Archipelago in Lake Vänern and is a reminder of Sweden's time of great power. During the Middle Ages, the castle belonged to the Scarab bishops, but was transferred to the crown in 1527. In 1618, it was granted to Jacob De la Gardie, together with the associated counties.
