Hörningsholm Castle is a manor house and former castle in Södertälje Municipality, Sweden, situated on a cliff overlooking an inlet of the Baltic Sea. Originally built by the Sture family during the late 15th and early 16th century, the structure was destroyed by Russian troops in 1719 during the Great Northern War. Architect Carl Hårleman subsequently rebuilt it in its present form, giving the castle its enduring character. The building underwent further renovation in 1919–20 under architect Ivar Tengbom.
