    Things to see

    Vaxholm City
    Vaxholm is an idyllic and cozy harbor town where you walk among the local, charming shops, galleries, cafés, and restaurants and easily spend a day. Enjoy the quiet cobbled streets and wooden buildings, typical architecture of the city. Did you know, wood was the only building material allowed in Vaxholm by law up until 1912?

    Vaxholm Fortress
    Vaxholm Fortress (Fästning) is the most impressive historic building in Vaxholm, situated on a small island opposite the town of Vaxholm. The Fortress was built in the 1540s as part of the new defense along the Swedish coast and as a safeguard of Vaxholm and Stockholm, the Swedish capital. The Fortress museum has fascinating exhibits and films teaching you more about the military history of Sweden.
