Nyköping Castle
Nyköping Castle (Nyköpingshus) is a medieval castle in Nyköping, Sweden, originating in the late 12th century and substantially rebuilt into a Renaissance palace at the end of the 16th century. It contains surviving medieval elements including a Gustav Vasa-era round gun tower; parts were later refurbished to house museum exhibits and a restaurant in the former banquet hall and Queen's Cellar.

As it stood in 1600
The shape it held in its prime.
A compact complex of medieval stonework and later red-brick Renaissance additions, with surviving towers and fragments of curtain walls. A round, stone gun tower from the Gustav Vasa period stands alongside the taller square King's Tower (Kungstornet) and the connected Old Residence (Gamla residenset). The palace reconstruction produces regular rooflines and rows of windows on surviving wings; banquet hall and vaulted cellar spaces sit beneath the main buildings.
