Bäckaskog Castle began as a monastery in the 13th century and was converted into a castle in the 17th century, according to Visit Sweden. The venue traces its history through several roles, including a Danish estate, a residence for a senior Skåne official and a royal summer castle. Wikidata lists it as heritage-listed.

The hotel and restaurant let visitors stay and eat in the historic buildings. The castle park has three marked walking or running trails: blue, 1,100 metres; red, 2,200 metres; and yellow, 3,000 metres. The venue also says hotel guests can use the sauna and swim in the lake on Fridays and Saturdays, with both included in their stay.

For the coming Sunday, 8 November, the venue lists a Father’s Day breakfast buffet in Stallet from 07:00 to 11:00. The listed price is 255 SEK (about $24, or £19); children up to age five are listed at 70 SEK (about $6.60, or £5.20). The site does not give a general admission price or a recommended length of visit. Restaurant visitors are asked to book a table. The venue lists no year alongside the breakfast date, so check with it before travelling specifically for the event.
