Gunnebo estate was constructed in the late eighteenth century. The owner was businessman John Hall, Sr, who contracted city architect Carl Wilhelm Carlberg. The architect was very much inspired by the Neo-Classical impulses in Europe. Gunnebo is built in Neo-Gustavian style. The Hall firm declared bankruptcy in 1807 and Gunnebo has had several subsequent owners over the years, J. Barclay being one of them. Gunnebo is now own owned by the municipality of Mölndal and is a Heritage-listed building. Right next to the manor you will find a lovely garden with trees and an English park. There are guided tours of the manor, gardens and farm. Gunnebo also arranges eighteenth-century theme parties, weddings, christenings and concerts at the manor house. Buses go from central Gothenburg to the Gunnebo estate; please phone Tidpunkten on +46 31 80 1235 for further information. If you come by car, take the E6/E20 through Mölndal, and follow the road signs.
