History

Täbys History

A district inhabited since the Bronze Age, famous and renowned during the Viking Era. Then during the next 800 years, a farmer's parish, and in the early 1900s added communities around several railway stations. As of 1950, it developed into a suburb of Stockholm.

Täby's history goes way back, and many of the 37 Runic engravings exist in the area which are evidence of Viking life. The most famous Viking was "Jarlabanke" - a farmer's chief who said they "take the whole of Täby."

Näsby Castle was built around 1660 by the drawings of Nicodemus Tessin "the elder". The castle burnt down in 1897, but five years later was rebuilt by its new owner Carl Robert Lamm using the original drawings. However, the old stables from 1665, are preserved, one of Täbys oldest secular buildings. The castle is beautifully located along Näsbyvikens beach.

Runborg (Sailors Cottage) in Täby Church Village

In the Täby Church Village, just north of Jarlabankes Bridge is the sailors cottage called "Runborg" from the 1700s and is now a museum. The house shows what it must have been like for a sailors family in the 1800s.

Täby Church

Täby church was built in the mid 1200s. Today's church is guessed to have had a predecessor made of wood. Jarlabankes Manor could have been in about the same place where the church is today. The sacristy was added during the 1300's and after a fire in mid-1400's the wood was replaced with brick. At the same time, a weapons house was built. In the 1400's, two parts of a Rune Stone, on the weapons house wall, tells that Holme died in Italy. Täby church is one of the nine top tourist attractions around Runriket.
