Known since the 1380s as a timbered manor for a German nobleman, but the 1450s were built a stone house whose residues are found in ruins today. Towards the end of the 1400s took Oxenstierna family over and was the family's main office in 250 years. In the 1550s it was built out to the Renaissance castle. The castle was greatest around the mid-1600s but was abandoned at the end of the century and was canceled. Arvid Horn took over the castle in the 1700s to renovate it but found it too expensive and instead moved the copper roof of a nearby Ekebyholm Castle. After a fire in 1740 when the castle was completely destroyed castle became a resource for building materials to people in the district. Among other things Fasterna Church. Today live protected species of bats in the ruins.
