    Originally built as a defense castle to protect Stockholm, this impressive castle looks like it could still defend against invaders even today :-). Well preserved, it is an impressive structure...

    more interested exterior than intetior! Plan your time more to enjoy in Vaxholm then to spend time in this castle. If you interesting in castles, go to U.K. instead!

    The biggest surprise of road trip around Öster Götaland . Very underrated location which even not many Swedes know, but it’s so worth visiting. It went on a guided tour which was also ok. I recommend to book ticket in 1-2day advance because they were already sold out on the morning of the day I visited the castle.

    This castle was worth the trip with all the old rooms and the historic sights. It is a bit expensive to get in but parking is just nearby. In 2022 you have to have a little parking slip in your car though. It is available in the stores and small businesses around the town. Quite an impressive place.
