The Castle Today
Open for visits all year round
Back in the day, it was Engelbrekt, Gustav Vasa, and Charles IX who ran the show in Örebro castle. Today, it’s Örebrokompaniet that makes sure there are fun and exciting things happening here—the kind of things that draw people from near and far to come here and experience the castle.
The National Property Board owns and manages the Örebro castle —and has therefore commissioned Örebrokompaniet to operate the public-facing operations. This involves keeping the castle open, organizing exhibitions and activities, and renting out venues for both corporate events and private gatherings.

Lots of fun things happen here
Since 2018, the castle has been a vibrant and accessible cultural heritage site right in the heart of the city. Open to everyone, year-round. Here you’ll find elegant halls, magnificent paintings, and plenty of castle-like settings. From time to time, various artists and exhibition organizers bring their works to the castle’s halls. And you can always visit the Children’s Tower, The Castle Shop , and Lill-Annas , the castle café.
And that’s not all. Both businesses and individuals can rent the halls for their own events. You can have your wedding at the castle. And when that beloved little one has a birthday, it’s a great place to throw a kids’ party.
What about the governor? Oh yes, she still lives in the official residence in one of the towers. In addition, a whole host of companies rent space at the castle to run their businesses from what is perhaps the city’s best location.
