Looking for a great Sunday lunch, we ended up here at Årsta Castle. The food is great, had lasagna which was really good. What I didn't like was that they didn't have a buffet. You got a plate with the food on and that's it. But I do understand too, because there wasn't many people eating. Great and beautiful outdoor seating, and a beautiful dekor inside.

Great food! We had lunch on a Sunday, a hand of options were available a la carte - husman dishes for 165 sek. The ambiance and the service are great, it seems to be the go to restaurant for the ones using the golf course. But it’s definitely worth the visit for those just passing by.

Nice and quiet, spacious and airy. Food is good quality and relatively inexpensive. Wine is boring but cheap.

Briançon Fortress

The historical centre of Briançon is a strongly fortified town, built by Vauban to defend the region from Austrians in the 17th century. Its streets are very steep and narrow, though picturesque. Briançon lies at the foot of the descent from the Col de Montgenèvre, giving access to Turin, so a great number of other fortifications have been constructed on the surrounding heights, especially towards the east.

The Savoyards made two raids into French territory in 1691 and 1692. As a result, Vauban was dispatched to inspect the frontier defences, which had been ill-equiped to deal with the attack from Savoy. He returned to the area in 1700 to check on the progress that had been made since his first visit. When Vauban visited Briançon, work on the defences had already started under a local engineer, Monsieur d"Angrogne in 1692.
