Ekenäs Castle Ekenäs Castle ( Ekenäs slott in Swedish ) is a castle located outside Linköping in Linköping Municipality , Östergötland , South - East Sweden . The present castle was built in the 17th century on top of the foundations of a medieval fortress from the 14th century . The lake surrounding the castle hill created a natural defense ; however , this was drained in the late 19th century to create more arable land in the area . Ownership . The castle is , and has always been , a privately owned castle . Its ownership can be traced back to Svante Sture . He lived during the reign of King Erik XIV , ruler of Sweden from 1560 - 1568 . When King Erik XIV ascended the throne , he set about to win the favor of influential people in the Swedish aristocracy . One of his strategies toward that end was to bestow on three of Sweden most powerful nobles the title of ' count ' . This was an unprecedented move in Swedish history , and one of the recipients of the title was Svante Sture . One of the first things Svante Sture did to exhibit his new - found status was built a stone house in 1952 on the site of the Ekenäs Castle . Some time in the early 1880s , count Philip Klingspor acquired the castle and its surrounding area . That marked a new era in the castle ' s history . The castle went from a citadel to a center of farming and forestry business . The castle ' s current owners are the Bergengren family . The Bergengrens , who were earlier in the textile manufacturing business , bought Ekenäs in 1939 . When they took over the castle , it had been unused for several years . The castle , in fact , has long been derelict . It is the surrounding area , totaling 1200 acres , that is more valuable . It was this combination of rich soil and ample forests that motivated the Bergengrens to buy the castle . World War II . During World War II , the Ekenäs Castle reverted , to an extent , to its original function as a defensive fortress . The castle became the local military headquarters and supply dump during the War . After the War ended the castle fell into a state of disrepair and neglect . The castle ' s furnishings were pillaged continuously by locals . Respite from exploitation came for the castle in 1974 , when the Swedish authorities recognized it as a site of national cultural importance . After this governmental recognition , the castle was significantly restored by its owners . Its present condition had led to its being regarded as the best preserved renaissance castle in Sweden . The interior of the castle has been immaculately preserved , with its furnishing , decoration and carpentry dating back three centuries kept in a wonderful state . Visitors are welcome year - round , however , the castle itself is only open during the summer . A jousting tournament and Medieval festival has been held here in May / June every year since 1993 .

Hypo helmet The Hypo helmet , or British Smoke Hood ( its official name ) , was an early British gas mask in World War I . The first use of poison gas on the Western Front was on 22 April 1915 , by the Germans at Ypres , against Canadian and French colonial troops . The initial response was to equip troops with cotton mouth pads for protection . Soon afterwards the British added a long cloth which was used to tie chemical - soaked mouth pads into place , and which was called the " Black Veil Respirator " . Dr . Cluny MacPherson of Royal Newfoundland Regiment brought the idea of a mask made of chemical absorbing fabric and which fitted over the entire head to England , and this was developed into the Hypo helmet or the British Smoke Hood in June 1915 . This primitive type of mask went through several stages of development before being superseded in 1916 by the canister gas mask of 1916 . The Hypo Helmet was the replacement , and was developed after Dr . MacPhersorn saw a German putting a bag over his head after a gas attack . It was simply a khaki - coloured flannel bag soaked in hypo solution ( glycerin and sodium thiosulphate ) ; it protected against chlorine . The soldier placed it over his head and tucked the bottom into his tunic . No inlet or exhaust valve was provided , and the wearer ' s lungs forced the air through the material making up the bag . A fragile rectangular mica or celluloid window provided visibility . The first version was tested in May 1915 ; manufacture began in June and lasted until September , by which time 2 . 5 million had been made and the hood had been superseded by the P Helmet , which provided improved protection against chlorine and added protection against phosgene .
