Rinkesta Castle

Rinkesta Castle is a castle in Eskilstuna Municipality in Södermanland, Sweden. Rinkesta is located in Ärla parish south of Norrsjön and north of Sörsjön.

History
Rinkesta was withdrawn from the crown's possession in 1594 through a change to Privy Councillor (Kammarråd) Gustaf Gabrielsson Oxenstierna  (1551-1597). The main building was repaired after a fire in 1698. The current appearance was given to the castle during an extensive repair in 1775, during the ownership of Swedish Supreme Court marshal (Överstemarskalk) Thure Leonard Klinckowström (1735-1821) who acquired the estate in 1768.
