He was created Count of Nystad and introduced in 1647, and received Wildeshausen as his own fief after it had been won by Sweden at the Peace of Westphalia, in 1648. In 1649 he unsuccessfully sought the position of Lord High Admiral in succession of Carl Carlsson Gyllenhielm, an illegitimate son of his grandfather King Charles IX of Sweden. Dissatisfied with the outcome he returned to Germany where he died at Wildeshausen. He lies buried at Riddarholmskyrkan in Stockholm.
