Already at the entrance to the vestibule you will find the mixture of Carolingian and Gustavian style, which characterizes the exterior. Pearl gray oil paint on doors and panels and woven wall hem with tight borders, bows and garlands reflect the taste of the Gustavian era. The roof, on the other hand, which is adorned with a pompous mythological scene, speaks the design language of the French-Italian Baroque and is probably made around 1700. Ceres with the shard on his arm and Pomona with fruit basket and cut rest in a golden char, surrounded by winged geniuses. The decoration is done in glue color directly on the smooth planed boards with ocher yellow, red and black as the dominant colors against the white bottom surface.
