Seværdigheder i Östergötland

Östergötlands län Unmissables

Östergötland’s landscape is defined by its medieval heritage and the engineering feat of the Göta Canal. This collection highlights the 12th-century Cistercian ruins of Alvastra Abbey and the Renaissance Vadstena Castle on Lake Vättern. In Linköping, the 12th-century Gothic cathedral and the open-air museum of Gamla Linköping provide insight into Swedish history. The list also features the Rök runestone, containing the world’s longest runic inscription, and the staircase of seven locks at Berg, which connects the canal to Lake Roxen.
