"Very nice and cultural place , you can feel the peace and the nature so together"
"A church with alot of interesting history, well worth a visit!"
"Historical beautiful calm place!"
"One of the places worth a little detour to see is the Varnhem Abbey and it's surroundings. Whilst the cistercian abbey is long gone and only ruins are there to see, the church still stands as a beautiful mark from a time long gone. Besides the beautiful architecture there are several Swedish kings buried here, the monks build the church with acoustic in mind so make sure you stay for a service. There is a museum at the back of the ruins about the abbey and on the hill above there is a museum about the beginning of Swedish Christianity during the Viking age. There is plenty to see and learn but there is also a lot of restaurants and coffee shops around. Finally it is also a part of the pilgrimage network in Sweden should you want to do a walk."
"This is one of the first places where monks settled to start their preaching in Sweden. The ruins are very well preserved and clearly marked signs explains the omd ruins. The chruch itself were restored during the 1600s so it is not purely medeival."
