Great place for a walk and taking some pictures. It’s also at the top of the hill so it’s a good workout. A few nice historic building nearby as well.

Gorgeous church from the outside. Absolutely perfect from every angle. There's not much to see inside - It feels more like a community center than a historic special space. It is located on a small hill between the houses, near also a children's playground. I highly recommend nearby the restaurant Meatballs for the people it's about 5 minutes walk from the church - you can taste meatballs of all kinds of meat here

Sofia kyrka looks like a slott, the special arrangement is the chairs, arranged the same shape along with the kyrka.

Disappointing and unpleasant... Feels more like a pocket shop than a church and they won't let you use the bathroom either.

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.
