Kalmar Castle in the Swedish city of the same name is one of the best-preserved Renaissance castles in Northern Europe.

In the past, Kalmar Castle was one of Sweden's most important defenses and was also known as the key to the empire because of its strategic location close to the border with Denmark.

Today, the castle impresses with its fantastic location by the water and its exciting guided tours and exhibitions.

A visit is also worthwhile for families with children: dressing up, games and castle fights ensure that the little ones won't get bored in a hurry!
