Kägleholm Castle (Kägleholms slott) is a castle ruin located in Kägleholm, Örebro County, Sweden. [1]

In 1541, the estate became a manor and was named Kägleholm. In 1674, Magnus Gabriel De la Gardie (1622–1686) inherited Kägleholm, and the castle was completed by 1680. However, the castle burned down in 1712 and was subsequently abandoned.[2] [3]
