Beautiful historic landmark, and a great place to picnic on a sunny afternoon…read more We came by just to see it as we'd never been, and it's a super brief but very steep uphill walk, then a few more steps to the middle area of the tower. Not a very accessible place in case you have mobility challenges. We saw someone get engaged here (literally) and a baby shower via picnic. So it's a really beautiful place to see a few and enjoy the city, other than that, it's not much else to do.

There are some good views of Gothenburg after the epic staircase climb. You can start the climb…read morefrom the Haga district where it's accessible right off the main street. After several flights of stairs I was definitely regretting the two weeks of nomming delicious Swedish food and devising my diet and workout routine for when we get home. At the top we took a few pictures and admired the views but were disappointed that there wasnt more information on the fortress to learn the history. The inside is not accessible and the outside has been desecrated by graffiti and gang symbols. It's sad to see such a beautiful historical building not being kept up and properly displayed, but the views were pretty nevertheless. If the complimentary stairclimber workout and the panoramic view didn't do it for you, there is a shop up there offering coffee and waffles to help you replenish your lost calories, what more could you ask for?

They refill the little pots as often as you want so you will get full. Each year there is a new flavor and this year with coconut and lemon grass was quite good. This little town produces the most sill in the country and Swedish tourists come to buy and try the sill. The restaurant has a small number of hotel rooms for those wanting a little romantic b&b experience. We have come here 2 years in a row now because our sailboat was harbored just on the other side of the bridge, Mossholmen and a pleasant walk away. Ot kind of reminds me of Tiberon, where boats can pull up at the cay and you can hop off for a lunch and then back on again to put out to the next port. They have a decent selection of local brews as well and you can order fresh fish done in traditional ways. Everything traditional is done well. The forays into non traditional Swedish home cooking are not as successful and I would recommend avoiding. The view is fantastic, the atmosphere is just posh enough but not too stuffy. The wine selection was quite good to accompany seafood dishes.

Excellent restaurant. Chef and wait staff really know what they are doing. We really enjoyed the…read morehospitality. Also loved the herring which surprised us since we normally do not eat herring.
