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.

So nice place which definitely worth it. I was there on Friday and only few people were there with me. Entry to the lighthouse cost 50 SEK and the view is so beautiful.

Well worth a trip if you like birds, good view of the unique landscape from the top

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.

Beatiful view If the weather is good, you can go up to the platform by paying a small fee (i recoment bringing cash with you) and If its open you can only go up at full hours!

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.

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.

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 !

Most beautifull museum for marine, I've seen. Being able to visit a real U-boot on the inside completly, just gives you much more feeling with the history and live in the marine. Also the lunch buffet in the museum is good quality.

Very interesting exposition includes 2 submarines and 3 ships. Good for visiting with kids. Also discount is available for entance if less than 1 hour until closure left

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.

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.

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.

An amazing day in the Fortress and a friendly, funny guide walked with us on the island. The " wild" lives were interesting too ( haha!) it was public holiday and no one worked there though

So much Swedish naval history at this place.

(Translated by Google) Nice fort, you can only visit the fort with a guide and boat. You must not walk around alone. Some stairs and you walk a lot, no seats unless the guide has placed chairs. Not adapted for the disabled. It is absolutely worth a visit. (Original) Fint fort, man kan endast besöka fortet med guide och båt. Man får inte gå runt själv. En del trappor och man går mycket, inga sittplatser om inte guide har ställt fram stolar. Inte handikappsanpassat. Det är absolut värt ett besök.

We didn’t get to set foot on Kungsholm Fortress, but we were lucky enough to get an incredible view of it from our cruise ship as we sailed into Karlskrona—and even from a distance, it was impressive. The fortress sits on a small island just off the coast, and its strategic position at the entrance to the naval harbor makes it clear why it played such an important role in Sweden’s maritime defense. Built in the late 1600s, Kungsholm Fortress has guarded the approach to Karlskrona for centuries and remains an active military installation, which makes it all the more fascinating. From the water, you can spot its rounded bastions, lighthouse, and even a glimpse of the courtyard inside the old stone walls. Knowing it has a botanical garden within the fortress walls—planted by the soldiers and maintained for generations—only added to the intrigue. While civilian access is restricted, getting a view of Kungsholm from the ship gave us a real sense of its scale and historical significance. If you’re cruising into Karlskrona, be sure to head out on deck—you won’t want to miss this striking piece of Swedish naval history quietly holding its post just offshore.

(Translated by Google) Masterful. The fort was built around 1680. There was never any actual fighting. The entire island and fortress are intact and original. The tour goes via the towers to the roof. The cannons were there to defend the water entrance. The cannons are gone, there is now an art gallery with works by stationed soldiers and war implements and tools on display. It also smells like the year 1700. You can climb the lighthouse from the roof. A beautiful place to take panoramas. The guide was perfect and knew everything. Was a former Marine himself. (Original) Magistraal. Het fort is gebouwd rond 1680. Er is nooit daadwerkelijk gevochten. Het hele eiland en het fort zijn intact en origineel. De rondleiding gaat via de torens naar het dak. Daar stonden de kanonnen om de wateringang te verdedigen. De kanonnen zijn weg, er is daar nu een kunstgalerij met werken van gelegerde soldaten en er zijn oorlogsvoortuigen en -gereedschappen te zien. Het ruikt er ook naar het jaar 1700. Vanaf het dak beklim je de vuurtoren. Een prachtige plek om panorama's te maken. De gids was perfect en wist alles. Was zelf een oud-marinier.

(Translated by Google) Nice fortress near Karlskrona. Definitely worth a visit. But you have to book a guided tour and go there on a tourist boat. Unfortunately, you don't have unlimited time to explore the island. (Original) Nette Festung bei Karlskrona. Unbedingt einen Besuch wert. Man muss aber eine Guided Tour buchen und mit einem Touristenboot dorthin fahren. Leider hat man nicht unbegrenzt zeit die Insel zu erforschen.

(Translated by Google) Very nice facility with knowledgeable guide ensured a pleasant afternoon for the whole family. (Original) Väldigt fin anläggning med kunnig guide borgade för en trevlig eftermiddag för hela familjen.

Amazing experience for my daughters. At least 4 hours needed. The movie shown about how the eye works was way to heavy though. Not sure why they choose that movie for kids. I had a hard time following how all the different cells in the eye function on a molecular level, or how level jumps in hydrogen electrons send out different frequencies of energy in space. :D But besides that, a great place for my 9-year olds.

We're here to see the dinosaurs we're so much more to see. Do you have children I recommend you to go here. They have a shop with a lot of small things. You can take a fika if you want to, you are going to need a coffee after spending hours here

Great scientific experience for kids and adults. It includes astronomy, climate change, physics etc. There is also a nice open-air space with an old jet fighter, bubble soap tool and some other mechanical experimental tool.

The permanent exhibits are interesting but a little aging. There are some nice interactives but many are broken or not working properly (one of the remote-controlled boats, the water power station in the park, the mouth-like musical instrument, among others). The dinosaur exhibit was great for my 4 year-old! He loved the animated robots, the digging, shadow theater and painting activities. But for older kids it might be a little boring. Besides these activities the exhibit itself does not have much interaction or information. I felt a lack of docents/educators to give out information, help us use the interactives or present special activities. I was not told about the fossil hunting that took place outside when we entered, which was a real shame, I only saw it when it was too late! In summary, we had a great time but many things could be improved.

The place is OK, available food,some.interactive games,but I was disapointed by the fact it did not changed in four years since I have been there last time.it has very limited opening hours even during season as well.

Expensive to visit both places. Kids enjoyed the snakes etc but only for an hour.

Good place to take your kiddos. But also your parents.

Mystical Island with lots of gems

It is a quiet beautiful place with a lot of nature and nice houses, on the top you have a nice few at the see.

Nice

Nice place

(Translated by Google) An incredibly well-maintained guest harbor with a good restaurant. Beautiful walking trails that often lead to encounters with fallow deer. A compliment to the harbormaster! (Original) En otroligt välskött gästhamn med bra restaurang. Vackra promenadstråk som ofta ger möten med dovhjortar. En eloge till hamnvärden!

(Translated by Google) Beautiful and varied nature, with fearless deer. However, the footpaths are not very well marked and there is no distance information on the arrows. It would have been great if the map of the island was available as a pdf on the island's website so that you could know more about where you were and have the information texts available. (Original) Vacker och varierande natur, med orädda hjortar. Gångstigarna är dock inte jätte bra utmärkta och det saknas avstånd information på pilarna. Hade varit toppen om kartan över ön funnits som pdf på öns hemsida så man kunnat veta mer vad man var och haft informationstexterna tillgängliga.

(Translated by Google) Great island with the brightest lighthouse in the entire Baltic Sea! You can go for a great walk here. There are plenty of nice holiday apartments. On the island you will often come across numerous deer with great antlers. The ferry is on time and cheap. We didn't eat, unfortunately the coffee wasn't hot anymore. But that seems relatively unimportant and secondary to us. The island is beautiful (Original) Tolle Insel mit dem hellsten Leuchtturm der ganzen Ostsee! Man kann hier klasse Spazieren gehen. Es gibt reichlich schöne Ferienwohnungen. Auf der Insel laufen dir oft zahlreiche Hirsche mit tollen Geweihen über den Weg. Die Fähre ist pünktlich und günstig. Gegessen haben wir nicht, leider war der Kaffee nicht mehr heiß. Was uns aber relativ egal und zweitrangig erscheint. Die Insel ist wunderschön

A unique place indeed! Old car yard of cars from 1930s-60s. There are sinages to explain the history of the place. Power of Mother Nature can be visibly seen as the forest is reclaiming back its space. Very small limited parking area.

Very unusual place. Full of old rusting cars and car parts. Like a cemetery. I imagine it used to be cool when the cars were still recognizable. Now it is just rust and dented metal. Quite depressing but stays in memory. Worth to visit. For free.

We had an amazing time walking through the wrecks. The sense of quietness and stillness was a much welcome experience after being on the road for a while.

Well worth a visit if you are into cars... every corner seems to tell a different story. There are so many different views and angles. The woods are slowly taking over. There are signs explaining what the owner did over all those years and the city trying to find a solution to deal with everything left in the woods. 2001 they decide to keep it to let people see how nature heals itself. We'll be back at some point to see how things change.

Fascinating place. Even when you do not like cars.

Whether it’s a work of art representing the transience of life or simply a lot of trash in the forest—that’s for each visitor to decide. We lean a bit more toward the latter. Still, it’s worth a quick stop if you’re passing by, but I wouldn’t make a detour just for it.

A nice place with a lot of old cars in the middle of nowhere. It looks like a kind of swamp where the cars has been placed. Meanwhile, the nature takes the dog back. The entrance is for free.

A worthy stop when in Österlen. There is a cafe, a shop and a viewing factory where they display some of the machinery and juice making process, fun to see for kids. The cafe was somewhat pricier than normal. For example, a piece of apple pie was 59kr. The shop, on the other hand, is cheaper than what you would pay in a store. There were many people on a Friday afternoon, but I wouldn’t say crowded. The biggest attraction is swings in the tree that are super high. Kids loved it as it goes really high, very popular.

Really nice stop if you’re in the area! Nice cafe offering different options for fika or lunch, with a bit of an apple twist. Vegetarian options, dogs allowed.

One of the best salads I ever had... The freshest produce and a very large portion and exciting flavours.

Peaceful environment, nice food at restaurant. Natural drinks :)

This soft drink producer is national popular in Sweden. Try fresh aple juice with greate taste. Siper many variations of drinks, jam and fruit jelly cream. Get here and be like a swede.

Combine this with a hike in the Stenshuvud's national park and a walk on the beach for a nice morning/afternoon.

Had lunch at the restaurant that wasn't so great but passable. Nice venue though. The shop has a lot to choose from but prices are not so different from those on the general markets.

Every beach along the coast seems to be very different. This beach has tons of beautiful pebbles that are smooth and some are pretty colorful. Worth a visit!

A really nice hike if you start from the Hällevik side, right by the Kivik Musteri. There is also a parking and a camping spot. We went directly to the northern top which was a few kilometers. After that we went down to Naturum and from there to the beach. From the beach we took a path back to Hällvik, which was quite rocky so not suitable for too small kids or strollers. We had 4 and 6 year olds with us and they found the hike quite exciting and not so hard. In total we walked about 6-7 km, starting from 17 o’clock until 21. We also had a picnic on the top of the mountain and then had a stop for swimming and snacking at the beach. I was worried for the last part of the hike but I gave some lollipops to the kids and it really motivated them. If you come at the end of May you will find a blossoming rhododendrons at Hällevik.

Nice sandy meets deciduous forest Has lovely small and large trails Free parking Nice restrooms Lovely terrain and scenery Has camping spots

Nice hiking tracks. Do not forget to wear shoes :)

A picturesque, varied and interesting national park. Not that large, one can visit most parts of the park in a few hours by foot.

Great national park. Went there in autumn. It was just gorgeous hike. Hike goes through hilly forest and next to beach. Have couple picking spots. Looking forward to go there in other season as it must be great all year around.

One of my favourite spots in Skåne. Beautifull beach, some nice walks in the national park, great views from the top of the 'stonehead'. They also have some good grilling spots, just bring some coal and meat, or whatever floats your boat ;)

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.

A must visit place when in Kristianstad. Very interesting presentation of wetlands wild life. Do not miss to enter simulation cabin and have a fascinating trip from air to land and even underwater all over the wetlands area.

Wonderful nature preserve in Kristianstad Sweden. Family had a surprise reunion of all the relatives. Loved the views. Had dinner there and it was great.

Great visitor center for the wetlands biosphere surrounding Christianstad. Lots of interactive and passive information, and I can recommend the opteryx ride!

Good place for a walk in the park (or castle grounds) which is located on a narrow piece of land between two lakes. Having walked to the end of the gardens to the lake, you will find a little island which has a view of the lake, linked by wooden bridge which has a swing on it!

Very nice castle with beautiful grounds. Didn’t visit the interior since we found the entrance free a bit off putting. However the surroundings are very enjoyable and it’s part of an ecopark which offers lots of possibilities to visit and hikes. Has a nice caffe with a good selection of pastries. Would definitely recommend.

Nice historical place to visit. The grounds are nice enough. Could have been better maintained specifically the ponds. Good read and guided tour. Food was ok but not much to choose from. No gluten free savoury options

Christinehof Slott fantastic place from spring to autumn. I love that place i went there with friend by walking around. You have to visit that place, so much power and energy in that place. There is parking place too and history about women Christine ant her life in that house.

❤️🌌

A wonderful experience. Beautiful castle with a great historic value. Seeing is believing!

Very interesting guided tour, nice surroundings where to stroll around and such a peaceful place!

A very Nice day for a trip to this amazing castle in the heart of skane They also have one happy hour with free coffee and very nice staff. Do visit this paradise.🙂

Very expensive for the experience - it is a guided tour of 40-45 minutes in Swedish, a few interesting tidbits that could have been a signpost :) Actually this would have been more appropriate as an unguided tour with arrows marking the route. And for 1/4 of the price. Chalk mines are in essense not thay interesting to look at as well.

A nice and quick guided tour through an old, primitive, limestone mine. The tour is about 40 minutes. There are stone steps leading into the mine, but beroende the entrance the ground is made of porous limestone and limestone gravel/dust. Not too slippery, but you still need to watch your steps slightly as the ground is not entirely flat. Headspace is mostly sufficient, but in some places you will likely need to crouch slightly.

Tourist trap. Tours are in Swedish and short. Cave is small. Didn't see anything special, no bats. Not worth the price.

I think it's good for children, but a little bit boring for adults. The excursion is very short and your ability to go to look something inside the cave is limited.

Extremely nice and quiet campsite. Friendly staff and good prices. The service buildings are kept very clean although the shower costs SEK5 it is acceptable because of how well maintained it is. The onsite 'cave' is well worth a visit as well.

The place offers bbq and a cafe in summertime. A new playground is located close to the mining entrance. Restrooms available and a small souvenirshop is also close at hand.

Well.. I really don't know what to type here. I love caves, but you are very limited to where you can go in the cave. And the tour was very childish. Other than that, a massive cave/old mine..

I liked the place, easily accessible and with a toddler it was amazing. The larger parks tend to be more stressful and slightly harder to view the animals. None of which I felt at this place. The animals really seem to be loved and cared for by the keepers. A good restaurant, with great food (I ate meatballs of course) A strong 4

Animals have very big spaces for living and enjoying there lives. There is a big park with trees, tables and cafe. You can make barbeque and have a picnic.

Nice zoo in a pleasant countryside surrounding. Not too many animals, but still enough to get kids up to 9-10 years old entertained. Nice addition to the park is a pool area, which is open during the summer, and included in the ticket price. Entrance fee is a bit on a high side of acceptable.

Very nice animal park with surprisingly many different types of animals. A good visit with the family. We arrived at opening time and very few people there then, so the walk around the park was almost done alone which is nice, as opposed to the commercialised parks.

Absolutely nice place to visit with family

Fast entry, easy parking, very well kept premises, easy to move around, a kaffe spot with fresh salads and fika, a good grill section to eat outside at fair prices. A well run business and thats good to see.

Perfect Saturday. The place is very family friendly, can pet some of the most friendly animals. Looks healthy and good space for them. Most importantly, they have capybaras and they are fantastic, will come back !

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

We went before Halloween, the park was decorated very nicely. There was a good atmosphere and we loved the animals. It was a good visit.

Be prepared for a long walk 😊 We couldn't see all the animals but it was worth to visit. Buying the ticket online in advance (not the same day) will make you save a lot.

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.

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.

Huge beautiful animal park, very nicely maintained. Various species. Restrooms throughout the park. Playgrounds, streetfood and a lot more

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!

We had a great walk here. The weather was rainy, but the nature was beautiful even so. Everything is clear and there are toilets and also some drinkable water at a place along the thread. There are several threads we walked the 7,7km one.

You can enjoy various courses! I went with my kids, so we picked a short one, but it was still super fun! And it's awesome that you can enjoy the museum right in front of it too! Totally recommend checking it out! ✨

We went there on October 24th around 3 p.m. I know it was a bit late, but I only had a short time to see it. The drive to the park was very pleasant, and the parking lots were almost empty. Seeing it in the fall was truly beautiful - so colorful and peaceful. The trees, falling leaves, and the sound of the wind and water created a tranquil atmosphere. I really enjoyed my short visit there and took some amazing photos.

A breathtaking escape into nature! Söderåsen National Park is truly a hidden gem in southern Sweden. The scenery is absolutely stunning—lush forests, dramatic cliffs, and peaceful streams everywhere you look. The hiking trails are well-marked and range from easy walks to more challenging routes, so there’s something for everyone. I highly recommend the Skäralid valley hike and the lookout point at Kopparhatten—the views are unforgettable! The park is very well maintained, with clean rest areas and helpful maps. It’s the perfect spot for a relaxing day in nature, a family picnic, or a solo hiking adventure. I left feeling refreshed and recharged. If you’re in Skåne, Söderåsen is a must-visit!

One of the best national parks i have ever been to. The trails are marked well. One can very well rely on the trail signs on the trees to safely complete the trail without getting lost. I had the pleasure of taking the longest route - the blue trail. Its easy for the most part except for few elevations, which tested my endurance. Remainded me why its classified as hard. The lady in the reception was super kind and helped me with her suggestions of the trail.

Impressive nature park with several hotspots offering magical views and experiences. I can only recommend EVERYONE to visit the park and go on short or long hikes.”

nice place for an extended walk - lots of shadow / forest, hence ideal on hot days. don‘t do with kinderwagen, very young kids or elderly people; some tours can be quite choppy, slippery and hilly.

I love when spaces like this are public and easily available for visitors from all over the world. This is the place to heal your soul and body after a tough day

It is free and beautiful but there were no any coffee shop or at least i didnt see

An absolute must if you are the slightest keen on the world of plants, trees, shrubs and the lot! Amazing place to just walk around in, chill on a bench, explore all the interesting greenery and learn from informative signs along the way. Playground for kids, shop and cafe. A big greenhouse to enjoy too (closed until late 2026 for restauration). The garden is within walking distance from just about everywhere in Lund as situated close to centre.

Beautiful and relaxing park Kids also love Free entrance to the garden and there is small coffee place

I expected more flowers so I got a bit disappointed but it is a nice garden overall.

A very beautiful garden with a huge variety of plants and such as well as big neat lawns perfect for picnics or a bench if you’d prefer that. Right now it’s under construction but the new green house is no doubt going to be great!

Part of the park is closed for renovation and the beautiful flowers are fenced off with netting, so it was not possible to enjoy the whole park.

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.

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.

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. Usually there is lot of weddings happen in this church and some times it can be closed for visitors. There is paid parking available nearby. Lot of restaurants also nearby.

A very serene place, It is beautiful cathedral built around the 1100s. It was worth the visit for the beautiful stained glass windows and the silence. the offerings of burring the candle was satisfying

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.

I really liked it. For a 1000-year-old cathedral, it's very well-preserved. Don't miss the basement, there's a very interesting crypt there.

Lund Cathedral (Swedish: Lunds domkyrka) is a cathedral of the Lutheran Church of Sweden in Lund, Scania, Sweden. It is the seat of the Bishop of Lund and the main church of the Diocese of Lund. It was built as the Catholic cathedral of the archiepiscopal see of all the Nordic countries, dedicated to Saint Lawrence. It is one of the oldest stone buildings still in use in Sweden.

One of the biggest gothic churches in Europe. This church is from 14th century but its architecture doesn’t look very old, it looks modern. We visited in weekday but unfortunately we can’t go inside because we were too late, only we saw from outside. It’s a huge.

St. Peter’s Church is a stunning piece of Gothic architecture and one of Malmö’s true historical gems. The moment you step inside, you’re greeted by soaring ceilings, peaceful light, and a sense of calm that immediately makes you pause. The church is beautifully preserved, with detailed brickwork, elegant arches, and centuries of history visible in every corner. The interior feels both grand and intimate, offering a quiet escape right in the middle of the city. It’s the kind of place that invites reflection — whether you’re interested in history, architecture, or simply a moment of peace. St. Peter’s Church is a must-visit landmark in Malmö that perfectly captures the city’s timeless beauty and spirit.

St. Peter’s Church in Malmö is a magnificent example of Brick Gothic architecture. It’s one of the city’s most popular tourist attractions, located right in the heart of Malmö and just a short walk from the central station. The church is large and beautifully designed, offering free entry for visitors. Regular mass services are held in Swedish. While the interior is impressive, there isn’t much historical information or inscriptions available inside, so visitors may want to read up beforehand to fully appreciate its rich past.

Most beautiful Protestant Church I’ve ever seen. Organ did feel too modern for the old interior, but still impressive. Free entry. The best part was the baptistery, very pretty! Go and visit it if you are in Malmø.

St. Peter's Church is a magnificent work of architecture. From its magnificent music to its rich Swedish history, its elegant and refined design allows you to marvel at its beauty.

In the seven centuries since construction began on this well preserved structure, it has been claimed by the Roman Catholic Church, the Church of Denmark, and since 1658, the Church of Sweden. And no charge to enter!

Beautiful church in Malmo with 2 interesting histories. Besides forming a connection to the Camino of Santiago to Composteka de Santiago and was once a Catholic Church but is now Protestant. Beautiful interior altar. Accessible venue with side altar and beautiful original carved stones in the floor

The King’s Park; Free entry, amazing scenery, animals, fountains, statues, toilet, benches, bridges, look out spots onto the water, playground, ponds, man made cave, cafes… Boating/ paddling , fishing, cycling and the likes , dog walking, picnics… Just altogether splendid!

What an incredibly nice place in the middle of Malmö. We really like trees and nature so we were really amazed. No entry fee, a lot of benches, delicious ice was offered by a very kind young lady, a lot of water and flowers. We noticed that everything was really clean and tidy, people were kind and friendly. Unfortunately, we have visited Malmö on a public holiday so maybe normally we could see more.

A truly lovely place to stroll, unwind, and soak in the beauty of nature. Peaceful and serene—perfect for anyone looking to escape the noise and simply listen to the quiet.

such a nice place to spend your time - walking your dog, let the kids play or just enjoy the stunning atmosphere of this beautiful park. very clean and calm. 100% worth a visit. 👏

Beautiful endless fauna and flora. Parks for the Littles throughout as well as plenty of hobbit and fairy houses. Look closely.

Great park for a walk, jogging, coffee or ice cream. Activities are often organised, and there are plenty of children’s playgrounds. Established in 1872, it is Malmö’s oldest public park, designed in the romantic English garden style and home to over 120 tree species from three continents. Highlights include a historic cast-iron fountain from 1882, the decorative “Grottan” cave with its Norse-inspired snake head fountain, and beautiful canal-side azaleas and rhododendrons

Taking a leisurely walk, having a picnic, or simply relaxing! Very beautiful place to be!

The guided tour was excellent. Our guide led us through the experience with great skill and engagement, no surprise, given his background in the art of acting. Highly recommended!

Quite well maintained and clean. But there’s little to see. The main attraction is info boards about the land and what happened there during different times. Nice place to visit

I went on an adventure to Landskrona's Citadel, it's a nice place on a sunny day to go for a walk for everyone. There are many activities and places to enjoy in the area also. There is a cafe inside by the castle. further down the road there is a outdoor training grounds and a skate park by the water tower, you can lay on the sun loungers that is set up facing the ocean where you can enjoy the view of the beautiful view. Furthermore, there are several places where there is a barbecue (grilling) spots with seats. * for parents or people with kids there are a playgrounds for the little ones down by the beach. Right next to the Citadel is Kaptensgården's sculpture park which is beautiful to walk through and there are many sculptures to look at and enjoy. I fully recommend this city and place.

Nice historic place to visit. Or ofcourse for a "Fika".

Amazing castle with a lot of walking paths around it. People do fish in the water around the castle. There's also a very nice beach close to the castle!

The castle is worth a short walk. We walked arround it, and came to the main yard. It did not managed to keep its original historic buildings, but it was still fun hour spend.

It's almost look like malmö castle still beautiful. You can definitely spend few hours around citadel and the center. I would recommend to visit the museum nearby. It's a good experience and free of cost.

Very beautiful island, good for family, hiking, cycling, relaxing and everything

I loved this island although we didn’t had too much time to spend on it. It’s the perfect place for somebody looking to have a quiet and relaxing vacation with such a landscape. Everything is well maintained and clean.

Beautiful island located between Denmark and Sweden. From Sweden we took the ferry from Landskrona, the ride is around 30 min. There are several walking / hiking paths with breathtaking views, but it is also possible to rent a bike, the island is very cyclable. Highly recommend!

SO MUCH FUN! We rented e bikes with baskets on the front for our little ones and off we went! We spent the day biking all over the island and enjoying the museum. A couple playgrounds are there which is great for the kids to get out and play! Small cafe next to the museum is a great place to grab a cold one and grab a bite to eat!

Great day trip! I haven’t biked in a long time, but with the rental bikes it is super easy and comfy. Plus you can walk the island too! If your new to Sweden, don’t buy a transit that includes Venn, you won’t use the public transit there if your biking and this doesn’t include the ferry ticket. I would recommend you previous your bikes, just makes it easier when you get there. It’s a cute island, but make sure to pack a snack and water, as you will want something and your budget might not like the slightly hotter prices of Ven. Overall, a fantastic place to venture too, just wish I would have had more time to see it all. Also a very family friendly place. Just make sure your prepared to bike or pull a bike and kids up some of the steeper grades.

What an amazing little island. Top secret tip if you are around. Take the ferry and in 30 minutes you are in Ven. Lots of places to stay or just spend the day for biking, walking, chilling on the beach or for enjoying nature. Rent a bike and explore this beauty of nature.

When in Skåne, this is a must visit, a daytrip, a weekend, play golf, try locally produced worldclass whisky and gin, rent bikes, visit the medeival church, learn more about Tycho Brahe .. Great restaurants,, And more..

Visiting the Little Mermaid statue in Copenhagen was a memorable experience. The sculpture itself is smaller than I expected, but it’s beautifully placed by the water and has a certain quiet charm. The surroundings are peaceful, with lovely views across the harbor, and it’s a nice spot for a walk. Even though it can get a bit crowded with tourists, it still feels special to see such an iconic landmark in person. A must-visit if you’re exploring Copenhagen!

The Little Mermaid – A Symbol of Copenhagen We visited the famous Little Mermaid statue, and while the statue itself is quite small, it’s definitely worth the visit. Nestled along the waterfront, the surroundings are absolutely beautiful, offering peaceful views and a scenic walk leading up to the site. The walk itself is part of the experience – calm, relaxing, and filled with lovely views of the harbour. Do keep in mind that it’s a popular attraction, so it can get quite crowded. If you're hoping for a quieter moment, consider visiting early in the morning or later in the evening. A charming and iconic stop on any Copenhagen itinerary.

Copenhagen in the Spring is a nice, relatively quiet port with mostly the usual features of European / Scandinavian ports. The only unique attraction is The Little Mermaid statue, small but with it's own history of abductions, kidnapping and beheadings. If you're lucky your guide will give you the local story of the Little Mermaid which is more of a Danish Tragedy, so beware of little ears who are enchanted by the Disney version. It isn't magical but it's interesting lore. Here are a few other shots of the city as there are ample and better pictures of the Mermaid than I could get under the lighting conditions.

The Little Mermaid bronze statue, located in Copenhagen, sits on a granite rock, on the water side of langeline promenade. It is 4.1 ft tall and weighs 175 kgs. The Statue was based on the fairy tale of Hans Christian Anderson and was unveiled to the public in 1913. However, it has now become a target for defacement, due to uncaring attitude of some people, despite attracting those tourist and visitors, who are smitten fairy tale lovers, ofcourse that includes me. I loved her quiet gaze, an unassuming sureness of her existence to continue.

I visited the Little Mermaid in Copenhagen around dusk since it gets dark early this time of year. It wasn’t crowded, which made it easy to take pictures. There were no tickets or anything like that, you just walk up to it. The statue itself was nice to see in person, though it felt a bit simple to me. Still, it was a fun stop and worth seeing while in the city.

it’s a very beautiful and symbolic statue as the sea wraps around it. around the mermaid there’s also a very nice park with amazing statues and church! there are a lot of people coming there for pictures so be prepared if you come in the afternoon!

Free activity - a little underwhelming to be honest, it’s also quite far out to the north of the city. If you on a tight schedule probably better to skip but if you have plenty of time & love the Hans Christian Andersen stories then pop past for a photo - there are actually some beautiful sights near the little mermaid which you can enjoy

Absolutely breathtaking experience! The Church of Our Saviour is not only a beautiful piece of architecture, but also offers one of the very best views of Copenhagen. The spiral staircase up the tower is a little challenging, but that only makes reaching the top more rewarding. Standing outside on the winding staircase with the city right beneath your feet feels magical. You can see all of Copenhagen – from the canals and colorful houses to the modern skyline. Totally worth the climb, and a must-visit spot if you want a unique perspective of the city!

Beautiful place! Climbing to the top and amdiring views of the city is one of the nicest experiences in Copenhagen. Important note - there is not only a lot of stairs to the top, but in some moments it's narrow and steep stairs. So it's not so easy to get there, but really worth to visit.

If you see one place for free in Copenhagen, see this church. It's spectacular! If you pay for one sight, pay for the ticket to climb the tower. The views are, quite simply, breathtaking. Outstanding 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟

The church is impressive! Did like it from the outside better than from the inside. There is a movie that is shown and it was disappointing that it was only in Danish. I mean with so many tourists please put English subtitles on. The tower is very impressive and the view real beautiful. But please don’t go up if you have vertigo as it is very high AND NARROW. I did expect some kind of platform on the top but the stairs just got more narrow and more narrow and ended at some point. A bit weird to be honest. For what it is I would say it’s not worth your money. If you have to pay please make it better and also the number of people should be less for one time slot. It’s quite hard to cross paths on those narrow and steep stairs. I do give it 4 stars as it is quite unique!

I visited only the tower... What a view - just make sure you don't suffer from vertigo and can move agile... The view is spectacular but it's really narrow up there. You might wanna go for sunset. We didn't have wind when I was there but I assume once there is... It's not very hygge...

The Church of Our Saviour is a stunning Baroque landmark from the 17th century. Its most famous feature is the spiral tower with an external staircase, offering breathtaking views over Copenhagen. Inside, you’ll find a beautiful altar and an impressive organ. At 12:00, there is a live organ performance that lasts for about 30 minutes, creating a truly unique atmosphere. A must-visit for history, architecture, and the unforgettable experience of climbing the spire.

Church of Our Saviour – Copenhagen A stunning baroque church with one of the best panoramic views in Copenhagen. The highlight is the climb to the top via a unique external spiral staircase—fun and adventurous, but not for the faint-hearted. With over 400 steps, it’s a bit of a workout, and the narrow, winding paths can be challenging for anyone with vertigo. Entry costs €8, and it's well worth it for the view alone.

A very pleasant and lively area. A boat tour is recommended. You can see many places in an hour. I think there are two boat tours. One is very cheap. You should ask about the difference and choose accordingly.

Visited Nyhavn over the weekend and absolutely loved it! 🌈 The colorful houses along the canal look stunning, especially on a sunny day ☀️. Tip: for the best photo, click from the opposite side of the canal 📸. Lined with cozy cafes and restaurants, it’s a perfect place to relax, enjoy a meal, and soak in the cheerful Copenhagen vibes 🇩🇰.

Nice view to take pictures. Both side of the canal has dozens of shops to hang out and buy souvenirs. All are expensive then what is priced outside of this zone. There is a big obnoxious ship in the canal and it is hard to take a nice reflective photo with the colorful buildings. That is why I personally like the one in Trondheim Norway.

Lively waterfront with many restaurants! I love the atmosphere but it was very crowded at the same time. We had a Thai food at Charm restaurant close by for dinner and the ice cream for dessert just across the road from Vaffelbageren Nyhavn. It's definitely a lovely place to walk around and soak up the vibe!

It's a must see and very photographic landmark area. There are numerous restaurants and small shops. You catch a canal tour here as well. Don't forget to visit the shop where Hans Christian Anderson once lived.

If you want to see only one place in Copenhagen, it should be definitely Nyhavn. Fabulous and lovely! Full of nice and cozy cafe and restaurant around it.

Nyhavn is so colorful and charming! Loved walking around, checking out the boats, enjoying the cute cafés, and of course taking tons of photos hehe

Christiansborg Palace is a historic palace in Copenhagen, Denmark, that now houses the country's three branches of government: the Parliament, the Supreme Court, and the Ministry of State. Once a royal residence, it is open to the public and features attractions like the Royal Reception Rooms, the Royal Stables, and a viewing tower with panoramic city views. Visitors can also explore the underground ruins of earlier castles that stood on the site.

The grand, grandeur and wonderful castle in the heart of Copenhagen. What a splendid way the castle is decorated and preserved and still active. Such display of wealth is dazzling. They have visuals and videos of the historical aspect of the castle. Interesting to go through them and better for kids to enhance their knowledge.

Visiting Christiansborg Palace was one of the highlights of my time in Copenhagen. The palace itself is a beautiful blend of history and functionality, serving as a working government building while also offering visitors a chance to explore royal reception rooms, historic halls, and underground ruins. Walking through the palace felt like stepping through layers of Danish history, where modern governance and royal tradition exist side by side. The climb to the top of the tower was absolutely worth it. The viewing platform offered one of the most breathtaking panoramic views in the city. From above, I could see the colorful rooftops, winding canals, and the orderly beauty of Copenhagen stretching in every direction. The view was especially impressive because it felt peaceful and expansive, giving a sense of the city’s balance between tradition, water, and urban life. Christiansborg is a must-see for anyone who wants both rich history and a stunning perspective of Copenhagen from above. It is a perfect combination of cultural depth and unforgettable views.

Christiansborg Palace is a unique and fascinating destination in Copenhagen, blending royal splendor with the seat of modern democracy. It’s one of the only buildings in the world that houses all three branches of a country’s government — the Danish Parliament, Supreme Court, and Prime Minister’s Office — all within a former royal palace. That alone makes it worth visiting. Architecturally, Christiansborg is an imposing and elegant structure built in Neo-Baroque style with touches of Neo-Classicism, especially visible in its formal reception halls. The current palace is actually the third iteration — previous versions were destroyed by fire in 1794 and again in 1884. What you see today is the result of a rebuild completed in the early 20th century, blending old grandeur with modern sensibilities. The tall central tower is the highest in Copenhagen and offers free public access with panoramic city views. Inside, the Royal Reception Rooms are a highlight, especially the Great Hall with its striking modern tapestries depicting Danish history, designed by artist Bjørn Nørgaard. The Queen still uses these rooms for official state functions, adding a sense of living history to the experience. You can also explore the Royal Stables, the Royal Kitchen, and the underground ruins, where remnants of the medieval Bishop’s Castle and earlier palaces have been preserved. In short, Christiansborg may not have the romantic fairy-tale look of some other castles, but it offers something deeper — a powerful connection between Denmark’s royal past and its modern democracy. A rewarding and educational visit, especially for those interested in history, architecture, and politics.

I visit Christiansborg all the time as a local guide, and it’s one of those places that keeps revealing new layers. The palace sits on top of centuries of history. In the 1100s, Bishop Absalon built the first fortress here, and the remains of that medieval castle are still visible in the underground ruins. It’s a pretty wild feeling to walk below the modern parliament and stand inside what used to be Copenhagen’s very first stronghold. On my tours, I often see the royal horses in the courtyard, which always adds a bit of magic. A couple of tips if you go: ride the elevator up to the tower for one of the best panoramic free views in the city, and book a meal at Restaurant Tårnet if you have time. It’s cosy, atmospheric and a fun contrast to the political building beneath you. The museums inside the palace are also worth exploring. The royal reception rooms and the ruins under the building give you a much deeper sense of Denmark’s royal and political history. Overall, Christiansborg is one of Copenhagen’s most iconic landmarks and a must-visit if you want to understand the city properly.

One of the most grand and beautiful castle I've ever been to. A must see if you are in Copenhagen! Buy the ticket and check out the beautiful reception area!

Fun & Free: Ride up the Tower (Tårnet) for great city views. ​Animals: Visit the Royal Stables to see the horses. ​Adventure: Explore the underground Ruins of old castles. ​Visuals: See the massive, colorful Tapestries in the Great Hall. Children 0-17 years free entrance.

Rosenborg Castle is a historic site in central Copenhagen, best known for housing the Danish Crown Jewels and Royal Regalia. The rooms are well-preserved and give a good overview of Denmark’s royal history. The Treasury in the basement is a highlight. The surrounding King’s Garden is open to the public and great for a walk. Worth a visit if you're interested in history or culture. Buy tickets in advance to avoid lines.

Rosenborg Castle is a wonderful place to visit: full of history, charm, and beautifully preserved treasures. The interiors and royal collections are fascinating. However, the exhibition lighting could be improved, as some areas were quite dim and it was difficult to see certain displays clearly. Overall, still a great experience and definitely worth visiting!

Well truely a marvel of the history. Absolutely loved the aura of the castle and its surroundings. There is big park and lake in front of the castle. It is easy to get to the place, thanks to the well connected public transport systems. The architecture of the castle is something that is worth mentioning. I would recommend to read and learn about the history of the palace before visiting it so that you can just relive the past and get a feel of the same. If you are planning to go in a weekend, be prepared to wait for sometime as there would be rush.

Not wheel chair accessible. My first ever Royal Castle. Be prepared for low light conditions. The history is right up and close as I have ever been in a museum setting. So respect the access. I loved looking at all the fine quality work completed by the period artisans and amazing quality especially all the inlay works in wood, tile & gems. Stunning if you live feeling the history. The Royal Treasury is exceptional and shows what was valued and when. Even in October when I went the Gardens were blooming.

Beautiful and well-kept heritage. I tried to visit the day after the Copenhagen half-marathon, but I didn't have time to get tickets online so that I couldn't get inside. I recommend buying tickets in advance. However, upon walking around, I can say that this is one of the most beautiful castles I have seen recently, compared to what I saw in England.

Cool old castle. Lots of history. Some interesting stuff that you don't normally see in a castle like a farting chair and a king's toilet. This is like the old and more castle-ish version of Danish aristocratic housing. For the real palace feel of the monarchy visit Christiansborg Palace. The royal family actually live in nearby Amelienborg.

Beautiful site and an easy walk from the waterfront. You can also peek at the King’s Gardens out back — immaculately kept, of course. The day pass is worth it for convenient access to the castle. Free lockers are a nice touch, and the guards with bayonets add a bit of royal drama. Inside, the halls are filled with art and artifacts — the grand hall with the thrones and lion statues is a standout. Don’t miss the Crown Jewels in the walk-in vault downstairs, complete with a step ladder for the perfect view. A truly regal visit, well worth the stop.

Totally worth the visit! It has a very cool architecture spiraling all the way to the top, ending with a rooftop deck, amazing views and also an observatory. It has some art installations inside too.

The round tower is a must see if you visit Copenhagen! It is Europe’s oldest observatory building and it offers breathtaking views of the city. There is an art gallery on one of the floors which has some interesting pieces

Great attraction right in the city center. The ticket costs around €8. The climb is easy, with very few steps, and the views from the top are beautiful — you can see the entire city from above. There’s also a small museum and a small art exhibition inside. I didn’t visit many attractions in Copenhagen, but I’m glad I visited this one.

Not to be missed. The line was short (on a late Saturday morning). Built under the direction of Danish monarch Christian IV between 1637 and 1642, this impressive tower offers stunning views of the København skyline along with the Øresund Bridge and Sweden in the distance. There are stairs only at the top; the sloping ascent made it possible for Christian IV to view his realm while riding in his carriage.

Beautiful building and it was awesome that the tower's path is the slope so it was such a nice way to travel up and down the building, I love it! Fantastic view of the city skyline at the top with a cool astronomy tower within ☀️🌙⭐🔭 There are bathrooms, shop, and gallery half way up the path. You can find a little details about the building and a replica look like it made from cork. Also an art gallery at the shop. The old bathroom was very small and interesting 😁 The final path way up the Round tower is a narrow tight space stairs so you have to wait for the lights to go up and come back down as there is only enough space for a one way traffic. It took up about an hour to get up, look around, and come back out. Definitely a recommendation of things to do in Copenhagen!

A nice walk up the round tower! Not staircases, just a walkway like walking or driving up a multi-story parking. 😃 lovely 360 views at the top if the weather permits. Lucky when we went it was dry and sunny so it was just perfect!

Cool place to see the landscape 🌆 of Copenhagen. Tip: Try to go at sunset 🌇 time. You can see how scientifics observed the sky in the past ⭐✨
