Description

This is a legendary site at Bolmarö manor in Annerstad, Ljungby, Småland. The site lies in a manor landscape near the river Bolmån and is accessible by road.

It tells the story of a lady of the manor who treated her tenants harshly. She became known as Pintorpafrun and was feared throughout the area.

One late autumn evening, the devil came to the manor and began to dance with her. The dance grew more and more intense, and when it ended, her shoes and even the soles of her feet had been worn through. Blood ran across the floor.

It is said that the blood stains can still be seen.

The story connects the place with ideas of guilt, power, and punishment.

The site is part of the Land of Legends in Småland (Ljungby, Alvesta and Älmhult), a connected storytelling landscape recognized by UNESCO.

The Museum of Legends in Ljungby gathers stories from across the region and helps visitors understand how such legends were shaped and passed on.

The site is easily reached by road and is suitable for short visits in a manor setting.
