History
The building as it looks today was raised in 1914–1918 when Swedish engineer and industrialist Carl Tranchell (1849-1919) had it constructed. It was designed to resemble a Boroque style castle by architect Fredrik Sundbärg (1860-1913). During World War II, Danish and Estonian refugees were hosted here. In 1970, the building was renovated and became a public facility. It and surrounding buildings are now a hotel and conference centre with a public restaurant. [1] [2] [3]
