The Brahehus Castle is located near Gränna, Sweden, in Småland. The castle was built by Count Per Brahe the Younger in the 1640s for his wife but she died before its completion. After her death it was used for tourists and parties. Now, it is a great tourist spot with a gorgeous view of lake Vättern, the third largest lake in Sweden. Many people hold picnics here or come for a day trip.
