A place that feels both peaceful and royal at the same time!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>READ MORE:&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/en\/2021\/07\/sollidens-slott\/\">Solliden Castle on \u00d6land - stroll in a royal garden<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/Slottet-5-1-2.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"576\" src=\"https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/Slottet-5-1-2-1024x576.jpg\" alt=\"Att g\u00f6ra p\u00e5 \u00d6land - Sollidens slott\" class=\"wp-image-188407\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/Slottet-5-1-2-1024x576.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/Slottet-5-1-2-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/Slottet-5-1-2-768x432.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/Slottet-5-1-2-18x10.jpg 18w, https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/Slottet-5-1-2-433x244.jpg 433w, https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/Slottet-5-1-2-600x338.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/Slottet-5-1-2.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 id=\"h-8-res-i-tiden-vid-eketorps-borg\" class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"10_Besok_Eketorps_borg\"><\/span>10.

The castles are now ruins, but the finds have taught us a lot about how people lived in the Iron Age. For example, jewellery and Roman coins have been found that tell the story of journeys to the East. Some of the most important castles include:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>B\u00e5rby castle<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Sandby castle<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Gr\u00e5borg<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Ismanstorp fortress<\/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\/Graborg-1024x575.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-142744\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/Graborg-1024x575.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/Graborg-300x168.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/Graborg-768x431.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/Graborg-433x243.jpg 433w, https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/Graborg-600x337.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/Graborg.jpg 1165w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Gr\u00e5borg<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Some of the most interesting are Sandby Castle, Gr\u00e5borg and Ismanstorp Castle. Eketorp Castle, which we recommend above, has been reconstructed and therefore offers a completely different experience. There is very little to see at Sandby Castle \u2013 but instead there is a dramatic history hidden here.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Human remains were found all over the castle, piles of rubble, as if everyone had been killed suddenly and violently.

The vast majority of today's \u00d6land windmills are stump mills from the late 1700s or early 1800s, and in total there are around 350 windmills today.

Spearheads and swords have been found inside the tombs. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Another interesting place is <strong>Seby cemetery<\/strong> where there are 280 graves, a shipwreck, a Viking rune stone, rock chests and bowl pits.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/IMG_E7746.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"576\" src=\"https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/IMG_E7746-1024x576.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-142793\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/IMG_E7746-1024x576.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/IMG_E7746-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/IMG_E7746-768x432.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/IMG_E7746-433x244.jpg 433w, https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/IMG_E7746-600x338.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/IMG_E7746.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 id=\"h-6-handla-i-tradgardsbutiken-vid-capellagarden\" class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"19_Besok_Capellagarden_i_Vickleby\"><\/span>19.

One of the most famous stones is the one called the \u201dKarlevi Stone\u201d, which is usually considered one of Sweden\u2019s strangest runestones. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The stone dates from the end of the Viking Age and contains a poem in what is known as \u201ddrottkv\u00e4tt\u201d. The poem is dedicated to a powerful chieftain named Sigge, who perhaps once upon a time accomplished some great deed. We find places like this fascinating. We can even feel a little dizzy when we try to imagine the time when people carved in stone.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/Karlevi-2-1.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"576\" src=\"https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/Karlevi-2-1-1024x576.jpg\" alt=\"Karlevistenen\" class=\"wp-image-188362\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/Karlevi-2-1-1024x576.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/Karlevi-2-1-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/Karlevi-2-1-768x432.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/Karlevi-2-1-18x10.jpg 18w, https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/Karlevi-2-1-433x244.jpg 433w, https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/Karlevi-2-1-600x338.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/Karlevi-2-1.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 id=\"h-11-gor-ett-stopp-vid-sankt-britas-kapell\" class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"21_Se_Sankta_Britas_kapell_vid_Kappeludden\"><\/span>21.

The chapel was built at the end of the 12th century, during a period when \u00d6land was a borderland, when the kings were fighting around the Baltic Sea and everyone had to be Christianized. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The chapel was abandoned in the early 16th century and today a fantasy-provoking ruin remains. Another place where it is hard not to start thinking about all the people who have lived and moved here over the centuries.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/IMG_5902-1.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"576\" src=\"https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/IMG_5902-1-1024x576.jpg\" alt=\"Sankt Knuts kapell\" class=\"wp-image-188369\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/IMG_5902-1-1024x576.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/IMG_5902-1-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/IMG_5902-1-768x432.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/IMG_5902-1-18x10.jpg 18w, https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/IMG_5902-1-433x244.jpg 433w, https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/IMG_5902-1-600x338.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/IMG_5902-1.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 id=\"h-12-kika-pa-historiska-kyrkor\" class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"23_Upptack_Olands_historiska_kyrkor\"><\/span>23.

Here you can see lots of wild animals, and there is also both a water park and an amusement park with carousels. We haven&#039;t visited the park ourselves, but for families with children it is one of the island&#039;s big attractions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/Djurpark-1-1.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"576\" src=\"https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/Djurpark-1-1-1024x576.jpg\" alt=\"Att g\u00f6ra p\u00e5 \u00d6land - \u00d6lands djur- och n\u00f6jespark\" class=\"wp-image-188398\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/Djurpark-1-1-1024x576.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/Djurpark-1-1-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/Djurpark-1-1-768x432.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/Djurpark-1-1-18x10.jpg 18w, https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/Djurpark-1-1-433x243.jpg 433w, https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/Djurpark-1-1-600x337.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/Djurpark-1-1.jpg 1201w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 id=\"h-25-at-kroppkakor\" class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"25_At_olandska_kroppkakor\"><\/span>25.
