Seal of the County of Raseborg

The County of Raseborg (Finnish: Raaseporin kreivikunta; Swedish: Raseborgs grevskap) was a historic county in southern Finland. It was donated posthumously to Sten Eriksson Leijonhufvud, whose wife Ebba Leijonhufvud became its first holder in 1569. The county was passed down in the Leijonhufvud family until the Crown recaptured it in the Great Reduction of 1680.
