Säby gård is a charming, historic manor tucked away in Järfälla parish, in the Jakobsberg district just outside Stockholm. The municipality owns the estate today and rents it to Säby Waldorfförskola, a Waldorf preschool that fills the main house and one of the wings with daily life. Säby gård has been a protected heritage site since 1983 and lies right in the peaceful surroundings of the Järvafältet nature reserve.

One of Stockholm’s largest contiguous green areas, Östra Järvafältet offers open farmland, mixed forests, wetlands, and quiet lakes just steps from the city. The reserve is threaded with walking, running, and riding trails, and its cultural landscape still shows traces of ancient settlements and old farmsteads.
