Sofiero Palace was, until the 1970s, a summer residence for Swedish royalty. The magnificent heritage of thousands of rhododendrons, beds, borders and kitchen gardens is carefully tended by a team of dedicated experts. In 2010, Sofiero was voted Europe’s Best Park.Sofiero is situated just north of the town of Helsingborg in southern Sweden. Interesting exhibitions in the palace and a variety of exciting events and activities in the beautiful park and gardens are some of the things you can look forward to when planning your visit. The season, during which the palace, shops, restaurant and café are open for visitors, starts March 31 and ends in September. However, you are welcome to visit Sofiero for a guided tour, a walk in the park and a chance to enjoy the view over the strait of Öresund to Denmark at any time of the year.
Sofiero is a great place to visit for the formal gardens, especially in the spring for the rhododendrons and in the autumn for the ljusstämning (where the grounds are open at night with all the paths lit by candles.)

Welcome to Fredriksdal museums and gardens Nowhere in Europe will you find an equivalent to Fredriksdal. This is Skåne in miniature, with 360,000 square metres of unique settings, buildings and gardens. Here, the history and diversity of the countryside are caringly kept alive. With its museums and gardens, Fredriksdal offers interesting activities for all ages, all year round. Take an explanatory walk, watch the animals grazing or join the manor maids for an interesting tour. Buy a bag of old fashioned sweets in the old town quarter, or your favourite rose in the flower shop. Find answers to your questions on nature or folklore, or just lie back and relax in a hammock. With its historical parks and gardens, houses and farms, animals, meadows, woods and pastures, all situated around an eighteenth century manor house, a visit to Fredriksdal is like making a journey back into the past.
A beautiful place for a relaxing walk or a picnic. Interesting reconstuctions of historic farmhouse and old village environments and a lovely collection of roses if you come at the right time of the year. In the summer they also have an outdoor theatre that plays a new comedy every year. Traditional Midsummer Celebration with music and dance around the Maypole.

The Town HallBuilt in the 1890s in neo-Gothic style according to plans by Alfred Hellerström who subsequently became the city architect. Declared a listed building in 1967. The clock tower is 65 metres high, the façade richly decorated and the interiors magnificent. The stained glass windows with motifs from the city’s history are famed.
This neo-Gothic town hall is most impressive, with red brick walls and a green roof. It dominates the area, which is quite attractive.

The Karnan tower is a place to visit for the whole family. In the beautiful Slottshagsparken above Terasstrapporna in the centre of Helsingborg you’ll find the medieval Karnan castle tower. Karnan is about 35 metres high and it’s worth every single step up the stairs to reach the top and enjoy the magnificent views over the harbour, Oresund and Helsingor. There is a long and adventurous, rather narrow spiral staircase leading to the top, but the stunning view makes it worth the effort. The Karnan tower was built in the early 1300s. The tower was part of a major castle site that had the status of “riksborg” (national castle) in the medieval and early Danish empire. Nowadays, it is the symbol and brand of the city of Helsingborg.
the very nice medieval ???? castle overlook the city if helsingborg.a must visit in the city and have a nice picnic if weather allows

The ferries on Øresund provides an excellent service to all of our guests, and the shortest way from Denmark to Sweden. The crossing only takes 20 minutes!
They changed name to ForSea. In Helsingborg, they depart right next to the train station. Only 10 EUR back and forth for the 1/2 h ride to experience the quaint Helsingor city in Denmark for shopping, great danish sandwiches (smorrebrod) and take a tour to the Kronborg castle. All within walking distance. Departures are several per hour, every 20 min or so. There is a short tax free shopping time slot while at sea. Lots of nice areas to hang out on the ferries, inside and outside. Do check what documents are needed to enter Denmark now in Corona times before you go (ok, worst case you just take the ferry back).
