Karsholm Castle (Swedish : Karsholms slott) is an estate at Kristianstad Municipality in Scania Sweden. [1]
Karsholm was first mentioned in the 14th century. A four-length facility was completed around 1620. It passed over the centuries to various owners. In 1781 Karsholm was bought by Swedish count Fredrik Ulrik von Rosen (1731-1793). The main house underwent extensive renovation by Rudolf Hodder Stjernswärd, after he bought Karsholm in 1854. The current appearance was given to the main house in 1862, when it was rebuilt as a Dutch New Renaissance manor house under the direction of Danish architect Johan Christian Ferdinand Zwingmann (1827-1891). [2] [3]
Karsholm (Karsholms Gods) has been owned and operated since 1869 by members of the Treschow family. [4]

Prince Ulrik of Denmark was a son of King Christian IV of Denmark and Norway and his consort Queen Anne Catherine of Brandenburg. As the fourth-born son, he bore the merely titular rank of Duke of Holstein and Schleswig, Stormarn and Ditmarsh; however, he had no share in the royal-ducal condominial rule of Holstein and Schleswig, wielded by the heads of the houses of Oldenburg (royal) and its cadet branch Holstein-Gottorp (ducal). In 1624 Ulrik was appointed administrator of the Prince-Bishopric of Schwerin as Ulrich III. However, in 1628 Wallenstein's conquest of the prince-bishopric de facto deposed him. His father had to renounce all his family claims to prince-bishoprics in 1629. When in 1631 Swedish forces reconquered the prince-bishopric Ulrik failed to reascend as administrator.
