Trystorp is a Swedish estate and château in Lekeberg, Närke. It covers about 687 hectares of land. A nature reserve lies to the south of the château, open to the public, with abundant wildlife and many old oaks. The estate was started in 1495 by Biskop Kort Rogge, who bought land there. The Livonian noble Henrik von Falkenberg was later granted Trystorp as a fief. The Falkenberg family owned it from 1603 to 1816, when it was sold to publisher N. M. Lindh. His heirs sold the estate to Julius Lindström in 1868. From 1914 to 1918 it was owned by Christopher de Paus. In 1937 it was acquired by Astrid Ziebach de Jonquiéres, whose heirs still own it. The property was put up for sale in 2009. In the 16th century, King Charles IX of Sweden was a frequent guest at Trystorp.
