A very friendly and cool place to visit on Öland. The drive to the lighthouse is an experience in itself. The lighthouse has an interesting history as well. It's not as tall or popular as the southern lighthouse, but this just adds to the charm. Also, it sits on its own small island too. Nearby parking accepts RVs for overnight as well.

Långe Erik lighthouse on Öland is a hidden gem! The climb to the top rewards you with breathtaking views of the island and the Baltic Sea. The peaceful surroundings and picturesque scenery make it a perfect spot for a relaxing visit. The lighthouse is beautifully preserved, offering a glimpse into maritime history. A must-visit for anyone exploring Öland!

Lovely landmark. You can climax the lighthouse for a nice view. Not spectacular. Easy to access.
Hans V — Google review
The lighthouse itself is very pretty and the view is fantastic. There are good parking possibilities for both bikes and cars. The wait to get in was understandably kind of long as we visited in week 29, the most common vacation week in Sweden. However it was a tad too difficult to understand where to buy tickets, and the price was double that on the Öland tourism website. Price for an adult in July 2023 was 60 sek.

Originally built as a fortress in the 13th century, it was later transformed into a grand palace by Charles X Gustav in the 17th century.
Nice castle, with a free app to download for an audiotour. Great feature! Really well organised, especially for children with fun medievel games for them to play. An afternoon well spent.

Nice old castle. But there is not so much to see because only the walls are left. The museum is a small history of the castle. But there was a really nice temporary exhibition called "Forgotten places".
Tina W — Google review
In Sweden, öland has lot of places to see and this castle is definitely should be in your list of you live in Sweden. Once I went to the Örebro castle literally there was nothing. But Borgholm castle was amazing with sea view. Car parking is available. There are few small boutiques to buy ice cream and souvenir. Tickets should be buy at the entrance. They have explained history for every corner of the palace. There was a room which was in ground, mentioned as dragons world. Everything was worth to see. Deserve five stars. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Best treasure hunt ever for kids. An easier treasure hunt for the little kids,where they have to find eggs. And a more difficult one for older kids,with great riddles and an amulett. Our kids said it was the best castle and treasure hunt they've ever been to. The castle and the exhibit is really nice. We enjoyed our stay and it was absolutely worth every krona.

Borgholm Castle certainly worths a visit while one visits Öland. It's a big castle with many rooms and picturesque views. There is a permanent exhibition about the history of the castle and temporary exhibitions. When we visited, the temporary one was about forgotten places and it was very well made and fitted the mood of the castle. A negative aspect is that the café only works during on season which is very short in Sweden. It ends middle of August when many international tourists still have their holiday.

A fantastic family experience – up close with moose! We visited Virum Moose Park a few days ago, and it was truly one of the highlights of our trip to Sweden! It was the first time we had ever seen moose so close – we even got to "kiss" them! Both our children and we adults had a great time, and we can highly recommend this place. In addition to moose, there are also goats, pot-bellied pigs, and fallow deer to see and pet, which our kids especially enjoyed. There's also a nice grill area on site, perfect for a relaxed lunch in nature. A wonderful and memorable outing for the whole family!
Matthias M — Google review
Visiting Virum Älgpark was a fantastic experience. It’s amazing how close you can get to the moose — much closer than expected! You’re given plenty of potatoes to feed them, and there’s definitely a good chance to see them up close, pet them, and even give them a kiss if you dare. The guides are great and make sure everyone gets a chance to feed the moose. A super fun and unique experience, especially for animal lovers!
Evert J — Google review
Those who bought the tickets online go through the entrance first. We chose to sit in the roof of the safari vehicle, the train moves very slowly so sitting on the roof wasn't scary. Once we arrived at the feeding zone, the attendants gave us potatoes to feed the animals, where we touched their soft horns and nose. After at least 20 mins in the enclosure, we drove out and the moses went to rest in the shadows. Afterwards, we got our sausages, barbecued them and made a sandwich. We walked on the bunny trail, bought souvenirs and left. The price is too high for what I experienced and expected. I would have loved to have more information about the history and the mission of the park.
Victoria N — Google review
Hands down the best experience we had in all of Sweden. As if the moose Safari and the fun train car caravan was not fun enough, we were able to buy hotdog and sausages to grill over an open fire. We also petted a bunch of sweet goats and got to feed them. The owners were super nice and down to earth and put a lot of love and care into creating this very unique experience. Must do! Our kids loved it and so did we.

Kalmar Castle

Mentioned on 
31 lists 
Castle
Sights & Landmarks
Kalmar Castle, situated in the city of Kalmar in Sweden's Smaland province, is a captivating historical site that offers visitors a glimpse into its 800-year history. This Renaissance fortress boasts fairy-tale turrets, a drawbridge, and even a foul dungeon with secret passages. The castle played a pivotal role in Scandinavian politics, notably during the formation of the Kalmar Union in 1397. Guided tours are available to help visitors appreciate the significance of this magnificent relic.
There are so many things to see and learn inside the castle, it is probably one of the main tourist site you HAVE to visit while in Sweden, at least if you are fond of history and architecture. You could spend the whole day inside and never feel tired. The castle' state of conservation is truly remarkable and the depiction of life in the middle age/renaissance is astounding. It is obvious the staff worked overtime to provide such a level of precision. Don't forget to look up for the ceilings, they are beautiful. I visited the castle during the Häxor exhibit and it was both immersive and moving, even for a foreigner, I can't even comprehend the amount of work that was needed to create such a masterpiece, even the poster is a work of art. I don't know who directed it but they are very talented. When you're done visiting, climb up the walls and enjoy the view. All in all, I came back with 400 pictures of the castle, that speaks for itself. It is hands down one of the best places in Sweden.
Stanislas T — Google review
Don't miss the castle if visiting Kalmar! The mummy exhibition is both interesting and fascinating at the same time. Make sure to set aside a half day if you want to go through the castle & mummy exhibition the same day. Comfortable shoes, you will be stepping stones for hours. The park outside the castle is very nice to relax in. You can find rare trees and flowers planted there, each with a little sign of name and year it was planted. Some are very old.
TheTasteSensation — Google review
This was our second visit, and we loved it again. They have fun stuff for kids to do, and the castle itself is interesting to explore. The food in the café is good and reasonably priced. The staff all speak English and many seemed to speak German as well (and Swedish, obviously).
Deirdre M — Google review
Beautiful castle but no way worth the entrance fee. Perhaps if you want the 'included' guided tour or you have small kids to take on the challenges, or you really want to see a random Egyptian exhibition it might be worth the money, but if you want a self guided tour and learn about the history of the castle yourself it's not worth the fee. Recommendation - charge a more reasonable base entrance fee then people extra if they want a guided tour or to enter the Egyptian exhibition.
Mike B — Google review
Beautiful and well preserved castle in Kalmar with lots of interesting history. The guided castle tour is recommended as well as to visit during one of the many events in summer.
Gb — Google review
Liked: - Even though it is largely reconstructed, its exteriors are a view. - Their guided tours are nice, even if not the best. - Kids can enjoy at least for 3-4h, so it is a plus. Lacked: - A comprehensive timeline chart like the one in Borgholm slot. - A clear and chronological understanding of the exhibition of Kalmar slott history.

Sweden's tallest lighthouse. Tickets are sold in the boutique (restaurant's side), not at the entrance (friendly staff). I was told there were 200 steps to the top, might be 197, I didn't count. The staircase is very narrow but overall the climb is easy-peasy. Might obviously be better when the weather is nice but overall very good spot for bird watching it seems. The views are what you'll be here for and are up to what you expect. Everything around is a protected natural area.

Arne O — Google review
It's one of our favourite places to walk in nature among the birds. We have been regular visitors to Långe Jan and the bird sanctuary for the last 1.5 years. Långe Jan is Sweden's tallest lighthouse. The view from the top is breathtaking. The lighthouse is only open during the summer and autumn (check the exact timings on their website). They have an entrance ticket that can be bought on the spot. The entrance opens at every hour. There's free parking and free toilets on the premises. They also have a bird museum, a small souvenir shop and a restaurant. Parking is open around the year whereas other facilities are open only during their opening time of the year. You can walk around the premises, on marked trails in the forest, and by the sea. Be sure to look at the map so as not to walk to the prohibited areas or hunting areas. The reserve also serves as a grazing area for cows and sheep. You can easily spot different species of birds, deers, rabbits, and seals. I recommend carrying decent binoculars to experience the surrounding beauty.

The tallest lighthouse in Sweden from which you can admire variety of birds. It's also hugely popular with birdwatchers. The place itself is very peaceful with not many visitors, there were no queues (middle of August). So, if you're into nature and landscapes it's worth visiting.
Łukasz R — Google review
It's probably a good spot for bird watching but I think the restrictions on where you can go due to the bird sanctuary was too restricting. But as I said. For bird watching probably great, for humans with dogs just wanting to explore the nature I would go elsewhere.

Interesting and extensive museum, gives great insight in the becoming of Karlskrona. The submarine is most impressive, although all the other exhibitions were also created with great care. One minor problem was that not all the signage was always available in English, or maybe only one sentence was while the Swedish text was very extensive. Google Translate solved this, but that could be improved for foreign visitors.
Niels G — Google review
While not a huge museum, it has some great exhibits, not least a very large naval submarine you can go inside and walk about in. There is a theatre that shows a very well presented film on the timeline of the Swedish navy. All the exhibits are displayed well and have English explanations alongside those in Swedish. The information is not verbose, which is a mistake often made by museums I've been too. The museum has an excellent restaurant which rounds off a really enjoyable experience overall !

A lovely couple of hours entertainment. Lots of bits that both kids and adults can enjoy like the nuclear submarine you can go on - do expect queues in busier periods. Really nicely weaved in overarching narratives with rich personal stories and events such as the Polish submariners who fled to Sweden in WW2 and Swedish conscripts experiences of the cold war. For an Englishman a fascinating way to learn more about Sweden's evolution through regional power, to superpower, to the softpower and cultural force you see today.
Nathan L — Google review
Very interesting museum offering informal text in various languages. It is a very interactive museum aswell with educational games so you easier can learn about for example submarines and how they work. You can enter a submarine aswell and see how they lived in there and more. There is also a buffet restaurant at the entrance if you want a quick bite before or after your visit.
Dinos I — Google review
I’ve been visiting the Blekinge region for years, and I must confess that this museum surprised me very positively with its accurate exhibitions and attention to detail. It transports you back in time and offers a magnified view beneath the surface of Karlskrona’s naval mastery. The museum doesn’t earn a full five stars because the bistro offers only limited and rather bland plant-based options, while most Swedish classic meals served are centered around meat and fried fish. Moreover, I felt the museum’s exhibitions tended to present Sweden’s naval and military history in a way that passively promotes war. Despite being a civilian institution, the displays often focus on military achievements and hardware without encouraging deeper reflection on the consequences or ethical complexities of conflict. I would have appreciated a more critical perspective that invites visitors to consider the broader impacts of war, rather than treating it as an inevitable or unproblematic part of national history.

Växjö Cathedral

Mentioned on 
9 lists 
Cathedral
Sights & Landmarks
Växjö Cathedral, located in the southern inland of Småland, is a must-visit when in Växjö. Founded at the end of the Viking Age by English missionary Sigfrid, it has undergone several alterations and rebuilds over the centuries. The cathedral boasts a combination of architectural styles and modern pieces, including a new font and an altarpiece designed by a renowned contemporary artist.
It is lovely! Definitely a unique building and a charming church in Växjö, we were lucky to experience a performance by a brass band. 🎺📯

We always visit a church when we visit a new town. This one was different. A bit sober, but the organ player did very well and created a beautiful atmosphere.
Robin D — Google review
Beautiful Cathedral with amazing interiors and furnishings. The glass works are just stunning, if I'm not wrong I think they were made by Swedish glass company Kosta Boda with designs by famous glass artist Bertil Vallien among other artists from different periods. Worth a visit (plus it's free entrance)

It is always great to find such stillness and peace in a city, to be able to draw near to God and feel his healing love.
Benjamin D — Google review
A must when visiting Vaxio. The cathedral provides a combination of architectural styles but what is truly attractive is the modern pieces, especially the new font and the altarpiece designed by a famous contemporary artist and which offers a full tale (front and even back!) of various religious stories and symbolism, including a very personal memory from the artist himself. The original church dates back to the XII century but has undergone many refurbishments and alteration. Its unique history and variety of styles offer tourist a depiction of the history of the city and Sweden.

Has roots in the early Middle Ages and the legend of St. Sigfrid is linked to the oldest cathedral of Växjö, who was bishop church already in the 1100s

Hammershus Castle Ruins

Mentioned on 
5 lists 
Fortress
Sights & Landmarks
The imposing Hammershus Castle Ruins, constructed by the church in 1200, are Scandinavia's largest and situated atop a dramatic cliff 74m above sea level. The castle is believed to have been built during the early 1300s. Visitors to Bornholm must walk through this evocative site and take in the breathtaking views.
An incredible ruin and must visit if you love history. Compared to the entire castle in its glory times, there is actually much of the stone base preserved. The strategic position of the castle makes for beautiful panoramic views all around (it's high up a cliff) and there are several hiking routes that go past and through the castle as well. Although the shop next to the castle closes, the castle never does and so it could be an amazing place to visit in early morning or late night too. I could not stop taking foto's of this place.

We've visited this place and we like it! The view is wonderful. We had a long walk inside the ruins also around it. The history was rich, each are has its own story to tell. After this, they have a cafeteria, where you can have lunch or snacks while enjoying the view. I'm not sure about the ticket, we just park and pay it online. But entrance fee don't think so.

What an impressive ruins! They are still quite in tact and are great to wander through and explore. In the winter, the info centre is not open, but you can still walk up to and around the castle. There are great coastal views and you are actually quite high up! There are information signs around, so you do learn a bit. Enjoy the many view points and benches where you can sit to take it all in. There are a number of sections fenced off at the moment, but everything is still very accessible. I really enjoyed exploring this area!

IKEA Museum

Mentioned on

Museum
Souvenir store
The IKEA Museum, located in Almhult, Sweden, is a must-see for design enthusiasts and fans of the retail giant. Opened in 2016 on the site of the world's first IKEA store, the museum offers hands-on exhibits, vintage catalogues, and retro displays that trace founder Ingvar Kampar's journey from vision to reality. It provides insight into Sweden's agricultural history and economic development while showcasing how IKEA revolutionized furniture accessibility and sustainability.
A great museum that I visited with a friend. The staff are friendly. It was interesting to dive into history. Some exhibits are interactive. In the same building, there is a restaurant with delicious food. On the ground floor, there are many souvenirs you can buy at the museum, with a wide selection

I was passing, so I called in. If you have spent hours and hours of Sunday afternoons in IKEA, and you're of a certain age ; you'll appreciate this walk back in time to see the stuff you bought, then offloaded on your kids in a pseudo encouraging way to get them to move out....
Sean J — Google review
A really nice museum!! You can tell it was created with a lot of pride and love. Don’t pay attention to the negative comments saying it’s small. It’s not an art gallery where you spend four hours, but I still spent over two hours there. And it’s not about the time, the museum is really well organized, just like every IKEA store, with lots of details and notes about Ingvar Kamprad and the growth of IKEA. And don’t miss the merch store, it was also really nice!🇸🇪
María M — Google review
Wow!! I especially enjoyed the different decades of furniture on display. It is a comprehensive look at the principles that IKEA was founded on and how those same principles have been applied throughout its history. We also enjoyed the restaurant and also visited the actual Ilea store a few km away. I only wish that the movie had given a better background on when/how IKEA began, more about the founder’s background, etc. No trip in this area of Sweden is complete without a stop here.
Pam G — Google review
If you're a lover of IKEA, you'll enjoy visiting this place to learn about the history of this legendary furniture company. You'll also learn about it throughout the years and get to know its founder and how he started from the early beginning. One thing that can be improved is adding more lights arrows on the floor to guide you through the museum sequentially. The only thing I didn't like is the shop. I wished they offered magnets or keychains that contain the name of the place but found none.
Abrar T — Google review
This is a fantastic place to go if you are either an IKEA fan or a product design junkie. Since I am both, I was overjoyed to see how well designed and laid out this museum is and how detailed the exhibits are. I quite liked the background on their product design process, which included looking at the ergonomics of things like kitchen layouts. I would definitely put this on a par with the World of Volvo museum. This is a great place to visit with the whole family. The museum itself has a “workshop” suitable for kids, there is an Ikea hotel just across the parking lot with a communal kitchen on every floor (and plenty of games to borrow in the lobby), and a very unique (but still in the IKEA family) restaurant also off of the same parking lot.

Free entry. Educational. Multilingual (Swedish and at least English and German - auch auf Deutsch). Diorama, Aquarium, statues of animals. And surprisingly, a small themed "AR" ride with a moving pod and fun drone footage.
Lucas K — Google review
Another excellent naturrum in Sweden. It shared considerable information about fishes found in the area(river, lake). It is also one of the places with good birdwatching opportunities. One of the staff members, Sussie, explained with enthusiasm about the cranes that visit the vattenriket area between mid-April and mid-May. Their changing display of fishes found in the area is an easy way to impart information. The restaurant on the second level is value for money, also the view is nice. The Opteryx experience is exciting for the kids, not much for the adults. There are two short hiking trails in the area. Overall, I highly recommend it.

If you are passing through Kristianstad in the south of Sweden, don't miss the a walk along the nature reserve just outside town. It is centric around the water and it's importance for the area. The area has a very rich bird and plant habitat

This is a small-scale, cool , interactive natural-museum kind of structure. I love how it encourages children (and adults) to research their surroundings. There are examples of eggs of various local birds, models of the birds, local plant examples, microscopes with samples of bones, plants, etc...it is really an interesting and fun way to explore local fauna and flora.

Smålandet Moose Safari

Mentioned on 
2 lists 
Wildlife and safari park
Nature & Parks
If you're looking for a unique adventure in South Sweden, the Smålandet Moose Safari is an absolute must-visit. Nestled within a stunning forest wildlife park, this destination is home to majestic moose and American bison. You can choose between self-driving through the park or hopping on a charming mini-train for a guided tour—both options offer fantastic views of these magnificent animals in their natural habitat.
Feeding a moose was on my daughter’s bucket list, so today she made that a reality. This was a fun and educational activity. I highly recommend the moose safari. Seeing a moose up close and touchable is pretty cool. The gift shop has some great items and the restaurant has some tasty foods. Stop by if in Sweden for this adventure.
Patricia L — Google review
A great visit to see Sweden’s “King of the forest”. They have 11 moose (& a whole herd of American bison) for you to visit. You can either drive your own vehicle or join the small land train with guided tour- we have done both now on different visits & both are excellent. The animals are clearly in their natural habitat & very well cared for, although it is an enclosure. They also have a great cafe (waffles are recommended!), restaurant, gift shop, kids play park & goat petting area too.
Sarah S — Google review
A nice way to get up and close to these very beautiful animals. We took the car safari, because the train had already finished for the day, but that brought the option to go at our own pace with our own car. The bisons were impressive too, they're so big and even had a few babies around! The souvenir shop is lovely too, lots of little gifts to remember the trip by :).
T F — Google review
It was a wonderful experience at the Moose Safari Park. I suggest to take the train over your own car for a better safari experience along with tour guide in English and Swedish.
Alex J — Google review
After a trip in Sweden without having seen a moose we decided to go to this safari park. Taking the little train proved to be of added value. You get to feed the moose and this they come close. I would advice to go early on the morning. It was a warm day and moose don't like that, so they were hiding in the shade as from noon, so not even interested in the food. My kids of 10 and 13 loved it. The food in the restaurant was also pretty nice. Never had moose or bison before. So overall a nice 2 hour attraction, but it could feel expensive if the moose (11 at the moment) are not active.
Jonathan R — Google review
We drove in by car and most of the time you are just stuck behind the train tour. The poor moose must live in a constant cloud of car exhaust. The park seems incredibly compact and the bison area seemed very small when thinking of just how many bison there were. Maybe my expectations were too high when seeing a rating of 4.6, but I felt really disappointed. Not quite sure why this place has such good ratings?
Iben S — Google review
We really enjoyed seeing the mooses up close from the train. They came over and ate the leaves we offered them. The mooses were majestic and absolutely beautiful! So it was extremely shocking to hear our tour guide mention that you could eat the meat of murdered mooses in the restaurant and you could buy their meat in the gift shop. What a disgusting and horrendous thing to do in a park where people come to admire beautiful living animals!
Joanna M — Google review
Nice park and very friendly staff. We got some hotdogs and waffles in the restaurant. But be aware, if you drive with your own car into the park, then you most likely will be stuck behind one of their trains for a while, which can be quite annoying.

Skånes Djurpark

Zoo
Outdoor Activities
Skånes Djurpark is a wildlife park that houses over a thousand Nordic animals in naturalistic enclosures. Visitors can enjoy watching majestic elks, spotting foxes hiding in the bushes, and interacting with cuddly animals in the petting zoo. The park also features the world's first Shaun the Sheep theme park and Expedition Up, where wooden bridges allow guests to observe animals from above.
I had a lovely time at Skånes Djurpark! The park is very clean, family-friendly, and the animals have plenty of space. It’s a great place to learn about Nordic wildlife in a natural setting. I especially enjoyed the moose and bear areas. The walking paths are beautiful and peaceful, and there are nice spots to relax or have a picnic. Perfect for a day out in nature! I recommend you buy your tickets online, it's more affordable.
Gizem Y — Google review
Comparative to other zoo in Sweden and this is fairly less entertaining, but there are good number of activities for the kids. They do not have any specific indoor marine or small animals and neither they have big animals like tiger lion elephant rhinos they have bear bison and nothing much fancy, a small dinosaur park is also good to see

Very toddler friendly. There is a small Shawn the sheep ride area where you go with a tractor. (They do spray water on you during the trip, its super cute actually) The wall through the park is shaded. The dinosaur area is really cool, the dinosaur make noises and it can be a little bit scary, but is very fun even as an adult.
Adde A — Google review
Nice place, especially for kids, but unfortunately we didn’t see any wolves or bears. Also, since it was a big day (Ebo Day), you could have staffed the food truck with more employees — it’s not reasonable to wait an hour just to get a burger sandwich, especially knowing there would be a large crowd.
Amin A — Google review
Huge beautiful animal park, very nicely maintained. Various species. Restrooms throughout the park. Playgrounds, streetfood and a lot more
Anikó D — Google review
It's a nice place to have a day out in nature. It's all native animals, though, and many of them are nocturnal, so you likely won't see every animal in the park out and about. I really liked the area for the seals, and I thought it was unique in the way that it was set up like a natural pond, rather than something more resembling a swimming pool that you usually see at zoos. It was a very hot day when we came to visit back in August, and the ice cream certainly helped offset some of the heat!

Lund Cathedral

Mentioned on 
+39 other lists 
Lutheran church
Sights & Landmarks
Lund Cathedral, a renowned Lutheran church in Sweden, is a must-see landmark with its 55-meter-high towers known as Lunna pagar. Dating back to 1145, the cathedral boasts historical treasures like the untouched crypt from 1123 and an astronomical clock from 1380. Designed by architect Helgo Zetterval, the main block features a classical style and faces a charming square. Visitors can also admire the impressive Kungshuset tower nearby.
Lund Cathedral is a must-see if you’re visiting southern Sweden! The architecture is absolutely stunning with it's massive stone towers-seriously impressive! The cathedral really stands out in the center of the city. It's hard to miss. Inside, it's really pretty with its stained glass and a cool astronomical clock located towards the back. Some of the people I met that came out shortly after me said they weren't allowed to see the clock or take pics. I think they start to get strict there on visitors once mass begins. It’s free to enter and is worth a stop in. A memorable landmark in Sweden for sure.
How L — Google review
A beautiful old cathedral built around the 1100s. As with cathedrals back then, there is a crypt where kings and other important people were buried. Another really cool antique is the astrological clock that still works. Amazing place and it is definitely a must visit when in Lund.
C N — Google review
Lund Cathedral isn’t just a place of worship — it’s a cathedral wrapped in Swedish legend, myth, and medieval wonder. From the moment you step inside, you feel the weight of centuries and stories pressing in from the stone walls and shadowy corners. The most fascinating part lies beneath the main floor — the ancient crypt, built in the early 12th century. Here stands the eerie statue of Finn the Giant, said in local legend to have built the cathedral in a single night. When the bishop tricked him out of payment, Finn tried to destroy the cathedral but was turned to stone and now stands silently guarding the crypt. It’s a chilling and unforgettable sight that adds a mythical edge to your visit. Then there’s the astronomical clock, an enchanting medieval timepiece that still functions today. Every day at noon and 3 p.m., you can watch it come to life as the Three Wise Men process before a mechanical Virgin Mary and baby Jesus, while medieval music plays. It’s like stepping straight into a fairy tale. Even if you’re not religious, the deep sense of Nordic lore, mystery, and ancient craftsmanship make this one of the most memorable cathedrals in all of Scandinavia. A must-visit for lovers of legends and the mystical past.
Dmitry Z — Google review
Very historical church , must visit and it’s near to malmo. It’s built in year 1100 and architecture is very beautiful. There is no entry ticket for this church.

Sunil K — Google review
It's a magnificent ancient church that has retained its genius loci. There is an astronomical clock inside which shows not just time but also date and zodiac sign and it chimes, with moving marionettes, at noon. And this is followed by a short prayer and Bible reading, which I very much appreciated. The bookstore across the church yard is also very much worth visiting.
Tomas C — Google review

Kungsparken in Malmö is an 8.4-hectare English-style park built between 1869 and 1870, featuring a cast iron fountain and cycling trails. It's a lush green space adjacent to the castle grounds, boasting stunning gardens, numerous statues, two lakes, and a charming community garden. The park offers a peaceful retreat with meandering paths for leisurely strolls and opportunities for picnics.
Really nice park in the middle of Malmø and close to Malmöhus Castle. The park provides a good respite from an otherwise busy city, and the old castle complex ensures that there is a lot of wildlife, such as ducks and swans. Really enjoyed visiting the park and will definitely be back when summer comes to Malmö.

Kronborg Castle

Mentioned on 
58 lists 
Castle
Museums
Kronborg Castle, also known as Hamlet's Castle, is a 16th-century Renaissance masterpiece located in Helsingor, Denmark. This UNESCO World Heritage site is famous for being the inspiration for Elsinore in Shakespeare's 'Hamlet.' The castle features baroque green-copper spires and is surrounded by moats and fortifications. Visitors can explore the inner palace's royal chambers, tapestries, ceiling paintings, and viewpoints.
Good: ✅ This is THE attraction in town. Beautiful property, castle, and engaging museum. ✅ Tailored visits. With a few hours on hand, pay admission and see it all. If short on time, walk the exteriors (amazing views) at no cost. Either journey is at your own pace. ✅ Well organized. There are sections of the castle with color-coded entrances from the main courtyard. A color-coded map is provided making it easy to make choices—see what you want. Caution: ❌ Obviously, a rainy day will alter the outdoor experience. However, for those paying admission, there is still so much to see inside. Summary: Aside from the adjacent cobblestone streets meandering through a charming cluster of shops and restaurants (an attraction on its own), the Kronborg Castle is the star attraction in town. An exploration will not disappoint.
Troy W — Google review
Kronborg Castle is one of the most impressive and atmospheric places I visited in Denmark. Overlooking the Øresund Strait, this UNESCO World Heritage site is not only visually stunning, but also packed with history and character. Known worldwide as “Hamlet’s Castle,” it fully lives up to its fame. The rooms and royal chambers are beautifully preserved, giving you a real sense of the grandeur of the Danish monarchy in the Renaissance era. But the highlight for me was exploring the dark, eerie casemates — the old military barracks beneath the castle. Walking through those damp, stone tunnels really brings the past to life. You can almost feel the presence of the soldiers who once took shelter there. And then there's Holger Danske, the legendary statue deep in the basement. According to Danish folklore, this mythical warrior sleeps under Kronborg Castle and will rise to defend Denmark in her time of need. Seeing the statue in the dim light down there added a magical, almost mythological touch to the whole experience. If you're into history, legends, or just want to explore a magnificent fortress with great views and an unforgettable atmosphere, Kronborg is absolutely worth the visit. Take your time — there’s a lot to discover.

Learned a lot about Danish history at Kronborg Castle — magnificent architecture and rich stories of kings and battles. The tower visit is absolutely worthwhile, offering stunning views over Helsingør and across to Sweden. A must-see for anyone interested in history, culture, and royal heritage.

What an experience! One of the most interesting castle I have ever visited. There many things to see during your visit there make sure to be on time so you don't miss anything. The underneath area was very spooky and adventurous!

Visiting Kronborg Castle was such a wonderful way to start our week in Denmark; we went on a Monday (during shoulder season) and it set the tone beautifully for our week ahead. The castle is located in the quaint town of Helsingør, about 45 minutes by train from central Copenhagen. The ride is comfortable and scenic, and from the station it’s a short walk into town and up to the castle grounds. We paid about 145 DKK for adult entry, students 125 DKK, and children under 18 were free. Kronborg dates back to the early 1420s when a fortress first stood here; later in the 16th century King Frederick II transformed it into the grand Renaissance castle you see today. The setting is dramatic: right at the narrowest point of the Øresund Strait, looking across toward Sweden, which explains its historic importance. The connection to William Shakespeare’s Hamlet adds a layer of legend and story: this very site inspired the “Elsinore” of the play. “To be, or not to be” seems almost to float in the air when you walk the corridors. We spent a few hours exploring and I’m so glad we didn’t rush; We enjoyed the whole castle, then ventured down into the crypts beneath the castle which felt a bit eerie, then examined the great halls, ramparts, the chapel and the sweeping views over the water. There’s a nice café inside and the gift shop nearby is well worth a browse and I found some beautiful keepsakes to take home. The town of Helsingør is charming, with historic buildings, small cafés and the sea at its doorstep; combining lunch in the town centre with our castle visit made for a really nice day out of the city. One important note: accessibility is limited; the castle has many stairs and no elevator, so it’s not ideal for wheelchairs. Opening hours when we visited were Tuesday to Sunday from 10:00 until 16:00 in the off-peak season; the castle is closed on Mondays. During spring and summer months the hours are extended and on major holidays special times apply, so it’s worth checking ahead. Summer weekends in particular can get busier; if you prefer quieter exploring aim for a weekday morning. If you’re in Copenhagen and craving a day trip with history, drama and stunning scenery, I highly recommend Kronborg Castle.

Few things you can say about Kronborg Castle other than incredible. There’s so much to see, experience, and learn here — the amount of history within these walls is astounding. The preservation work is truly impressive, allowing visitors to step back in time and appreciate this remarkable piece of Denmark’s heritage. I had an amazing time touring the castle and would highly recommend it to anyone visiting the area.

A magical place full of history! Kronborg Castle is truly impressive - elegant, mysterious, and full of stories. The view of the sea is breathtaking, and it's easy to imagine Shakespeare's Hamlet walking through the halls. Beautiful architecture, calm atmosphere, and great exhibitions. Just make sure to dress warmly - it can be quite windy there, even in spring!

Kronborg is wonderful and easy day trip from Copenhagen on the train. It exceeded all expectations. The castle is gorgeous. The exhibits are fantastically interactive and engaging. The Hamlet characters coming to life was a highlight. The views of the sea are incredible. Also, great town to explore ..

Maritime museum
Museums
The M/S Maritime Museum in Helsingor, Denmark offers a unique underground experience showcasing the history of Danish seafaring and trade. The modern building provides an intriguing setting for exhibits on this maritime heritage. Located on the northeast coast of Zealand, it stands opposite Helsingborg, Sweden. The museum is a must-visit destination for those interested in delving into Denmark's rich seafaring past.
The museum was very informative and attractive. For adults and for the kids it's for everyone who wants to learn something about Danish maritime history. The museum shop was weak if I compare it with the Viking museum in Roskilde. But overall I definitely recommend this museum. Actually just for this museum you can come to Helsingør.
Yunus D — Google review
Worth a trip to Denmark! It’s not only worth a detour to finish your Copenhagen pass, it could be the cornerstone of your entire trip; according to the Michelin rating, it’s the top note! The museum is set in a dry dock, adorning an incredible architecture. Very kids friendly, with a huge playing area that also instructs, it offers a story within the story with a clandestine mouse that the kids have to hunt for. As for the adults, the museum is multifaceted, showing history, WWII, the influence of shipping, but also stunning models and a mesmerizing photo exhibit of sunk boats and their treasures. Tank to the team, always smiling as they provide answers to the most obscure questions, and the generous donators that made this museum possible. The shop offers quality products designed or made in Denmark. If the cafe is closed, there is a huge indoor food trucks area nearby! There’s more than Hamlet in Helsingør!

It was our second visit to the museum, which underwent an excellent renovation during the winter of 2024–spring 2025. We continue to love the place, as do our kids. It’s a spot where you can learn a great deal about Denmark’s maritime history and spend hours admiring the many boat models. We highly recommend a visit and suggest planning to spend 2–3 hours there.

This museum is so much fun, it deserves all 5/5 stars. Not 4.5, not 4.7, but a proper 5. The effect the museum had on us is that our new dreamjob is to design museums about on the surface boring subjects. Making ships this interesting, quite the accomplishment. It was very interactive, we learned a lot and we loved finding the hidden mice 🐭 (and we're grownups!) Discovered this museum thanks to the CPH card, and would recommend anyone to make a stop here, along with the castle right next to it. Great stuff!

Louisiana Museum of Modern Art

Modern art museum
Sights & Landmarks
The Louisiana Museum of Modern Art in Humlebaek, Denmark showcases an impressive collection of international contemporary and modern art dating back to 1945. The museum also features temporary exhibitions and is suitable for all ages. Visitors can bring their own food and drinks or dine at the cafeteria/restaurant. The facility is easily accessible with baby strollers and boasts creative spaces for children to play and create.
Super fun place to examine modern art. Honestly, I'm not a huge fan of modern art but this place was a lot of fun. The sculpture garden was the highlight but in a very special way. Be sure to first experience seeing the sculptures from inside the museum as you peruse the other exhibits then experience them from the outside. This made me really appreciate how well the sculpture and the building integrates with each other and with the surrounding environment - both the rise and fall of the property and the background of the sea and sky. Just a superb experience.

About an hour by train outside of Copenhagen city centre and then 10 minutes walk from Humlebaek station. The ticket can be book online but it was also super easy to buy it on arrival with no queue when we go on Sunday midday. There are a little bit of outdoor sculptures and some indoor gallery. Nice view and some interesting displays. There are 2 gift shops, one on the ground floor and one downstairs. I had a fun train ride.

This museum is a wonderful reason to take a short trip and experience another side of Denmark beyond Copenhagen. It offers a great opportunity to focus on and appreciate the works of talented contemporary artists. The outdoor installations, in particular, blend beautifully with the gardens and surrounding landscape. The number of artworks feels just right—not overwhelming—allowing you to take your time, enjoy the scenery, and relax as you explore, especially on a pleasant day.

Really amazing museum. Large galleries, beautiful outdoor space with ocean views, great 2-story gift shop and restaurant. Plan to spend about 2.5 hours wondering around. Really enjoyed the exhibits and architecture. We bought our tickets online and they were good for one use within one year of the time of purchase. The train ride is about an hour from downtown Copenhagen.

Beautiful museum, really recommend the trip out of the city to visit. Great, easy train journey too with a short walk to the museum which is set in the most fabulous building and grounds. We booked tickets in advance so we didn’t have to queue, which id recommend if you can. Loved the sculpture garden, definitely go on a dry day so you can make the most of the gardens and the views over the water. Wonderful cafe, with space to eat/drink outside in the sun. Great coffee. Beautiful shop with loads of fab design based gifts, art prints, ceramics, books and accessories. Cloakroom space through the back of the shop to store bags and coats in lockers is so useful. A card machine is available for those without local coins to use.

Andrew K — Google review
Visiting the Louisiana Museum of Modern Art was one of the highlights of our Copenhagen trip; it made for such a beautiful day out of the city. The museum is located in Humlebæk, about 35–40 minutes north of Copenhagen. We took the train and the journey was quick, scenic and very comfortable; once you arrive it’s only a short 10 walk from the station to the entrance ( just follow the crowd) The museum first opened in 1958 and was created with the vision of making modern art accessible in a place where people could experience it alongside nature rather than in a formal or intimidating setting. The architecture is stunning! Designed by Jørgen Bo and Vilhelm Wohlert, and the layout feels thoughtful and calm. There are long corridors of glass, open courtyards, natural light everywhere and pathways that lead you between indoor gallery spaces and the outdoors. It’s the kind of building where you notice something beautiful around every corner. The museum is known for showcasing both international and Danish modern and contemporary artists. They have an incredible permanent collection, and new exhibitions are rotated throughout the year so there is always something fresh to experience. The sculpture garden overlooking the sea might have been my favourite part; walking through the garden with large scale artworks and hearing the ocean just behind them felt very special. Inside there are two places to eat: one café outdoors along the sculpture garden path, and one beautiful indoor restaurant with large windows facing the ocean. We stopped at the restaurant and enjoyed a glass of wine and something delicious to eat while looking out over the coastline; such a peaceful moment in the middle of exploring. There is also a fantastic gift shop filled with design pieces, prints, books and souvenirs. Perfect if you want to take something home to remember your visit. This museum is big; we spent nearly the entire day there and I’m glad we didn’t rush. We took our time walking through the exhibitions, stopping for breaks, sitting outside, and exploring the gardens. It is absolutely the kind of place where slowing down makes the experience even better. Entry tickets cost 145 DKK for adults, with students holding a valid student card paying 125 DKK. Children and young adults under 18 have free entry. We bought our tickets on arrival and there was no wait at all, which made our visit feel relaxed from the start. Opening hours when we visited were Tuesday to Friday from 11:00 to 22:00, and Saturday and Sunday from 11:00 to 18:00; the museum is closed on Mondays. I imagine summer weekends are the busiest, so if you prefer a quieter experience, weekdays are probably ideal. A quote that came to mind while wandering around was “Art washes away from the soul the dust of everyday life.” It felt fitting, because this place truly lifts something inside you. If you are visiting Copenhagen and want a day where art, architecture and nature come together beautifully, I highly recommend coming here. It’s calming, inspiring and incredibly memorable; I would happily return again.

Kullen Lighthouse, located on the Kullaberg Peninsula, is arguably Scandinavia's oldest lighthouse with a history dating back over 1000 years. Positioned dramatically atop cliffs, it serves as a crucial navigational beacon in heavily trafficked waters, with its powerful 1000-watt beam visible for 27 nautical miles. The site offers expert-led and self-guided tours, along with a summer cafe and opportunities for porpoise watching.
Kullen Lighthouse is a breathtaking coastal landmark on Sweden’s southwest coast. Surrounded by rugged cliffs and stunning ocean views, it offers a peaceful retreat with incredible scenery. Visitors can enjoy panoramic vistas, explore nearby nature trails, and learn about its rich maritime history at the visitor center. Perfect for sightseeing, photography, and nature lovers. A must-visit spot for anyone exploring the area!

Wonderful peninsula for hiking - no difficulties. The round tour (marked orange) is recommended. Pack a bathing suit and plenty of time, it's worth it. The visit to the centre at the top (halfway point) is also worthwhile. Especially noteworthy, outside, the litter educational trail with the final post with plastic bags to help keep nature clean.

Frederiksborg Castle

Mentioned on 
41 lists 
Castle
Nature & Parks
Frederiksborg Castle, a stunning lakeside palace nestled in Hillerod, Denmark, is a treasure trove of Danish and royal history. Originally constructed in the early 17th century for King Christian IV, this magnificent fortress showcases Dutch Renaissance architecture and stands proudly amidst its picturesque moat-lake. Visitors can explore the expansive grounds featuring beautifully manicured baroque gardens and access the central courtyards without charge.
Absolutely stunning! Frederiksborg Castle is without a doubt one of the most impressive baroque palaces I’ve ever visited - and I’ve seen many across Europe. The architecture is grand and elegant, with richly decorated rooms full of history, royal portraits, and fascinating artifacts. The chapel alone is a masterpiece, and knowing that Danish monarchs were crowned there adds a real sense of significance. The surrounding grounds are equally breathtaking. The baroque garden is massive and beautifully kept, offering amazing views of the castle from different angles. You can easily spend hours walking around the lake, gardens, and courtyards. Fun historical note: the castle was built by King Christian IV in the early 1600s and later restored after a major fire, thanks in part to the founder of Carlsberg beer! It now houses Denmark’s National Portrait Gallery and offers a deep dive into Danish royal history. A must-visit if you’re anywhere near Copenhagen — worth the short trip to Hillerød. Peaceful, majestic, and unforgettable. It made me think of some amazing palaces of Peterhoff, Saints Peterburg.

Frederiksborg Castle is a grand and beautiful castle located about an hour from Copenhagen 🇩🇰. You can take a train to Hillerød Station, and from there it’s an easy 1 km walk to the castle 🚶‍♂️. Entry fee is 110 DKK per person, and the castle is surrounded by stunning gardens and a peaceful lake that make the whole place truly picturesque 🌿🏰. When we visited, some parts were under renovation, and the museum inside didn’t have much that was interactive. Still, the architecture and royal atmosphere make it a pleasant visit, especially if you love history and photography 📸. If you’re short on time, we’d recommend visiting Kronborg and Rosenborg first, and then Frederiksborg — in that order ⏱️. Each has its own charm, but Kronborg and Rosenborg felt more engaging overall ✨.

Why visit? ✅ If limited on time, tour the grounds for free (no cost). ✅ Regarding the grounds, there are so many different views to enjoy while walking the property: gardens, waterfronts, bridges, courtyards, etc. ✅ The castle interior (admission required) is loaded with artwork, antiques, and rooms that stun with both size and intricate detail. Why skip? Honestly, I can’t think of any reason. If limited on time, at least walk to the grounds to get a good look. If spending a day in town, this is THE attraction to visit.
Troy W — Google review
This is a lovely easy day trip out of Copenhagen. A single 40 minute ride on the E train to Hillerød station then a 15 minute walk or short bus ride to the castle. The castle is huge and rarely crowded, but the vast rooms, artwork, and gardens are gorgeous. Check out the tour times before you visit - we were lucky to arrive just in time for the English language tour and it was superb. The castle is an easy walk from town, but there’s also a small boat which does a lap of the lake and for a small fee takes you to the garden and the far side of the castle.
Stephen S — Google review
We knew this place was one of those 'must see' locations on the island of Sjælland and I vaguely remembered going there when I was 12, entry is also included within the Copenhagen Card. We had actually spent the entire day in Copenhagen the day previously and so had always planned to head north the following morning. We were back at Tivoli by the afternoon so definitely recommend this as a day if you've the stamina. Very impressive castle and worth the visit. It would probably have been better a few weeks later when the wee boat on the Slotssøen was running again (too early in the season) but then I imagine you'd want more than just a morning in the area when the weather is warmer too. The bonus was that it was really quiet - you'll see from the photos we were often the only family in these huge and spectacular rooms.

Viborg Cathedral

Mentioned on

Cathedral
Sights & Landmarks
Viborg Cathedral, a Romanesque-style religious structure, has been around since the 12th century and boasts two towers as well as noteworthy frescoes. It is a breathtakingly beautiful edifice that can easily rival Notre Dame in Paris. As an iconic landmark of Viborg, one of Denmark's oldest towns, it allows visitors to climb its towers for a small fee.
This cathedral is just plain magnificent. We visited it in start of June and was amazed. For a modest price (10 DKK) for an adult (children are free) you can go inside and even walk up the tower and have a great view over Viborg. I very highly recommend a visit. Wether you are religious, interested in architecture or just on an adventure you will have a great time here.

Viborg Cathedral is the cathedral of Viborg Diocese and at the same time the parish church for Viborg Cathedral Parish, which includes the northern part of central Viborg. The church was originally dedicated to Our Lady, i.e. Virgin Mary . From the beginning until 1440, a chapter of Augustinian choirmasters, i.e. a group of priests of the Augustinian Order , was attached to the church, who were tasked with carrying out the various services at the cathedral. - Wikipedia

Refined hotel in a 15th-century lakeside castle with modern apartments, a farm & a concert venue.
We had the most lovely dining experience at Graham slot in June 2022. We enjoyed the accommodations very much. Our room was lovely with plenty of space and very cozy. The grounds are breathtakingly beautiful with gardens, trails, and a playground! We had dinner at the Gram Slot restaurant, and it was beyond amazing!! My young daughter, 2 teenagers, my husband, and myself all thoroughly enjoyed our three-course dinner. First course was delicious smoked salmon with caviar and vegetables: it was divine. Our second course was the most juicy tenderloin with root vegetables. Our third course was moist chocolate brownie with walnuts; but they accommodated our nut- allergic daughters with apple cobbler. The wine pairings were perfect. The chef and wait staff were splendid. Thank you for a wonderful evening!

Had to postpone a private booking due to a death in the immediate family. The venue deliberately didn't respond to mails and calls weren't answered because they were moving to another place or something. Then they refused to postpone the booking because it's a new venue, and had to receive full payment with no service. They didn't even claim part of the responsibility.

How’s our wedding plus reception at Gram Slot. We also booked our all the accommodation. Owner Svend and Exec Chef/Manager Alex were very accommodating for the 60 people in attendance. Accommodation was clean and spacious. Team were very helpful in ensuring satisfaction of our guests. Food quality was fantastic and the wine pairings were perfect. Really recommended!

Returning for the second time, with a two year gap and the development of the place astonishes me! A very nice place to visit and a fine example on how an idea can become a community wide project and commitment.

Their website somehow lacks quite a bit of information about events going on. If there had been more information the trip would have been far more enjoyable. A lot of the things that happen there only happen at a certain time once a day and the information for some of these things were hard to find.

We held our wedding dinner at Gram Slot, and was very satisfied :) The food and location was amazing and we got the bridal suite on the second floor with view of the garden. The only thing we did not understand was why they do not have more weedings at the castle, it is ideal for it :) Pricewise it was really good as well, 21 adaults, 2 kids was less than DKK 20K. Thank you Gram Slot for having us!

Small castle where nearby you can rent a room without AC and sometimes with 1 toilet for 3 rooms.
