Countryside church on a small hill. Charming.

Vassås church is one of many beautiful medieval churches in Vestfold. It is beautifully situated on an elevation in the cultural landscape west of the road between Vivestad and Sundbyfoss. It is easy to find your way here and there is plenty of space for parking. Maintenance is good and the cemetery is well-kept. What is missing is an information board that can tell about the history of the place. If you want to get to know the rich ecclesiastical heritage in Vestfold, visiting Vassås church is an absolute "must".

A cozy medieval church in idyllic surroundings. The church was built in the late 12th century and expanded and restored a number of times. The shape and color choices make this fine church a little out of the ordinary. Take the trip to see the church is my suggestion.

Château du Lude

The Château du Lude is one of the many great châteaux of the Loire Valley in France. Le Lude is the most northerly château of the Loire Valley and one of the last important historic castles in France, still inhabited by the same family for the last 260 years. The château is testimony to four centuries of French architecture, as a stronghold transformed into an elegant house during the Renaissance and the 18th century. The monument is located in the valley of Le Loir. Its gardens have evolved throughout the centuries.
