Uppsala Castle

Uppsala Castle is a royal castle begun under Gustav Vasa in 1549 on a ridge above the city, rebuilt in stages after the fire of 1702. The pink wings hold the residence of the governor of Uppsala County and Uppsala Art Museum, with modern and contemporary art on three floors; the gun battery on the bastion still faces the cathedral.
