The Visingsö Island very rich in history from the medieval period and churches. The place of cistercian monks.

Probably the highlight of the entire island of Visingsö is its Visingsö Slottsruin as it is a historic structure that the authorities are trying to preserve for the future generations to be able to learn about this small island where many historical events happened. The entrance is free, right next to the main port, and the grounds are well kept with mowed grass and safely protected structures. From here you have a nice overview of the whole Visingsö Port, and not visiting this place if you're going to the island is considered that you have not been to the island at all.

Went here by boat from Hjo, This place has a nice view of the lake. There are some restaurants and bike rentals close to this ruin. I recommend that you rent a bike because it’s easier to get around.

For this particular time we went to a Theater set of Ronja Rövardotter - super good even in the soaking rain. For this there was a fee, but otherwise it's free 8ch charge to wander around in the old Castel ruin. Very nicely seated by Vättern

Only one part survived from atack on the castle in the XVIIIw. At this moment some construcions works are done here. You can see scaffolding at the pictures below. Maybe the place will be ready for the summer season, i don't know.
