Sweden's most famous 'summer house', Solliden Palace, 2.5km south of Borgholm town
centre, is still used by the Swedish royals. Its exceptional gardens are open to the public
and are well worth a wander. The idyllic cafe is ideal for a post-garden break.
Borgholms Slott
CASTLE
Northern Europe's largest ruined castle, Borgholms Slott, looms just south of town. This
epic limestone structure was burnt and abandoned early in the 18th century, after life as a
dyeworks. There's a great museum inside and a nature reserve nearby, as well as summer
concerts, children's activities and a cafe.
