trips

  • To Timrå to the Merlo Castle. It looks like something out of a fairy tale. The building was built between 1883 and 1885 as the summer residence of the wood manufacturer Fredrik Bünsow.
  • To Tyndero, about 40 km, for the production of Surstromming(Sour herring). There are other production facilities. Anyone who is not a Swede should be warned about the smell.
