Known since the early Middle Ages, Krapperups Slott, Skåne's oldest and once most powerful manor, is located on the Kullen peninsula near Mölle.

The present-day Krapperups Slott dates back to the mid-16th century and is surrounded by
a beautiful park open to the public year-round. Tours of the inner castle are only available to groups from Easter to Midsummer and from mid-September to mid-October.

The manor is owned by the Gyllenstierna family. It was built in the 16th century on the remains of a medieval castle. Extensive renovations in the 18th century gave the manor its present appearance. The seven-pointed stars on the facades, the Gyllenstierna family crest, were added in the 17th century.

The castle park was laid out as a Baroque park in the 17th century and has been continually altered since then, reflecting the spirit of the times and the tastes of the owners. In its current form, despite the floral splendor of the rose garden and the numerous herbaceous borders, the park is a landscape garden that cleverly exploits the elevation differences between the castle and the grounds sloping down to the coast.

The courtyard buildings north of the outer castle courtyard house the estate's various public activities. One of the former outbuildings houses the Von Werder Gallery, where the artist Gunilla von Werder presents her works.

The other buildings house a small museum, a 400-square-meter art gallery, a small music hall, an arts and crafts shop, and the castle café with a small castle shop.
