"Medieval Fortress Fun Take the bus to Kungälv and walk up to Bohus Fortress (Bohus Fästning), which has guarded the northern entrance to Gothenburg at the Nordre River since 1308. During the summer lots of medieval-style activities take place, like sword fighting, archery, and “knight school” for children. Don’t go back to Gothenburg until you have taken a walk along Västra gatan, a charming street with old wooden houses. Maybe stop for fika , too."

Is a good place to visit in the surroundings of Gothenburg. It is possible to get the ticket and explore inside but I was satisfied only with the exterior. The walk around the fortress takes 20 min and is worth it, the are sheep and snails. You can get there from Gothenburg with the bus X4.

An amazing castle although some parts in ruins. The parts that are still intact have exhibits in them that tell the story of the fort which has been historically very significant. Visit in the weekend to see the firing of the cannon around 12PM.

An enjoyable place to visit with loads of activities for families. Almost everything had English descriptions as well as Swedish. Good toilet facilities inside the ruin. Loads of picnic places. Great views from the top of the castle. I was fortunate enough to visit on a sunny day but there is enough covered places so that a visit in the rain would be possible.
