Here you can learn more about the life of the nuns in general and Birgitta's life in particular. For example, did you know that Birgitta made several long pilgrimages in Europe? <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">At the age of 68, Birgitta began her dream of making a pilgrimage to Jerusalem, the Holy Land. She fell ill during the journey and died a year later in Rome. Work then began on bringing her remains back to Sweden and Vadstena. The coffin used for this is now in the museum.<\/p><div class=\"freed-grupp-stora-banners-i-blogginlagg-2 freed-entity-placement\" id=\"freed-3199045950\"><div class=\"freed-adlabel\">Advertisement<\/div><div id=\"freed-3427615850\" class=\"method-missing not-front type-post not-theme-page\"><a data-no-instant=\"1\" href=\"https:\/\/wifi.se\/produkt\/hybrid-traveller-portabel-5g-router-med-backup-batteri-i-over-6-timmar-usb\/\" rel=\"noopener\" class=\"a2t-link\" target=\"_blank\" aria-label=\"freedom\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/freedom.gif\" alt=\"\"  width=\"588\" height=\"288\"   \/><\/a><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-2 is-cropped wp-block-gallery-2 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"576\" data-id=\"118797\" src=\"https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/Museum-grav-1024x576.jpg\" alt=\"Att g\u00f6ra i Vadstena - klostermuseum\" class=\"wp-image-118797\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/Museum-grav-1024x576.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/Museum-grav-600x338.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/Museum-grav-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/Museum-grav-768x432.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/Museum-grav-433x244.jpg 433w, https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/Museum-grav.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"576\" data-id=\"118798\" src=\"https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/Museum-nunna-1024x576.jpg\" alt=\"Att g\u00f6ra i Vadstena - klostermuseum\" class=\"wp-image-118798\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/Museum-nunna-1024x576.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/Museum-nunna-600x338.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/Museum-nunna-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/Museum-nunna-768x432.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/Museum-nunna-433x244.jpg 433w, https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/Museum-nunna.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"576\" data-id=\"118796\" src=\"https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/Museum-Helena-1024x576.jpg\" alt=\"Att g\u00f6ra i Vadstena - klostermuseum\" class=\"wp-image-118796\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/Museum-Helena-1024x576.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/Museum-Helena-600x338.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/Museum-Helena-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/Museum-Helena-768x432.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/Museum-Helena-433x244.jpg 433w, https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/Museum-Helena.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-5-beundra-vadstena-klosterkyrka\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"5_Beundra_Vadstena_klosterkyrka\"><\/span>5.

If you want even more ideas for things to see and do, here are some more tips we got from the local tourist office:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>The Toy Museum at Slottsg\u00e5rden<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Guided city tours and garden tours<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>The King's Train - the \"Little Train\" that takes you around the city with a guide.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Galleries and studios<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Home-made coffee at the Pilgrimage Centre<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Restaurant H\u00f6rnet, featured in the White Guide<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Cycling dressin<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Adolfsn\u00e4s Commercial Garden<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"575\" src=\"https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/IMG_E7436-1024x575.jpg\" alt=\"Att g\u00f6ra i Vadstena - \" class=\"wp-image-118837\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/IMG_E7436-1024x575.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/IMG_E7436-600x337.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/IMG_E7436-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/IMG_E7436-768x431.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/IMG_E7436-433x243.jpg 433w, https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/IMG_E7436.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-var-kan-man-bo-eller-sta-med-husbilen\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Var_kan_man_bo_eller_sta_med_husbilen\"><\/span>Where can you stay or park your motorhome?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Best areas to live in and explore<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Centre of Vadstena \/ old town<\/strong>&nbsp;- Perfect location close to the castle, monastery and restaurants.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>At Lake V\u00e4ttern<\/strong>&nbsp;- For water views and a peaceful atmosphere.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Monastery area<\/strong>&nbsp;- Historic setting with a unique feel.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Surrounding countryside<\/strong>&nbsp;- Ideal for peace, nature and excursions.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Pitches and campsites<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If you are traveling by motorhome, you can park overnight at the parking lot in Lilla hamnen, not far from the castle. As usual, we arrived too late to find a free spot, so we had to drive further out of town. If you can&#039;t find a parking spot, there is Vadstena camping a little outside the city.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"576\" src=\"https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/St\u00e4llplats-11-1024x576.jpg\" alt=\"St\u00e4llplats f\u00f6r husbilar i Vadstena\" class=\"wp-image-118804\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/St\u00e4llplats-11-1024x576.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/St\u00e4llplats-11-600x337.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/St\u00e4llplats-11-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/St\u00e4llplats-11-768x432.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/St\u00e4llplats-11-433x243.jpg 433w, https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/St\u00e4llplats-11.jpg 1165w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-fler-cityguider-i-narheten\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Fler_cityguider_i_narheten\"><\/span>More city guides nearby<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Planning more trips nearby?
