As "Slott" is a Swedish word for Castle, I'd suggest moving the article to "Gripsholm Castle". Any objections?

I'd leave it as it is, it's common not to translate the proper names of things

When and who built it

On the site of Swedish royal court it is stated than Gustav I Vasa built the castle himself. I see both here and in swedish article Bo Jonsson stated as initial dweller (and tend to believeit). Does anyone know (or atleast have a theory) why the royal family does not want to recognise that? -- Goldie (tell me) 07:20, 21 December 2005 (UTC)[reply]
