For a small attraction, the history of the ruins is well illustrated and interesting to read. The hill where the ruin is an easy climb. You can see the foundations and outline of the rooms but not much else. Apart from this, you can relax and picnic by the waters or walk around the hill. Drop by if you are close by but it's far and out of the way just to travel from Stockholm to see this. There is a small parking area close by and the walk to the attraction takes 5 minutes.

Loved the serenity and the tranquility that comes along with this place. Best time to visit is during Swedish summer on a bright sunny day.Just spread ur picnic blanket, utilize the designated grill spots, break the bread and spend time with ur loved ones alongside the channel...

The outpost ruins give no idea about the structure that existed, more enjoyable is the walk by and the view of Linasundet.

Walls of Constantinople

The Walls of Constantinople are a series of defensive stone walls that have surrounded and protected the city of Constantinople (today Istanbul) since its founding as the new capital of the Roman Empire by Constantine the Great. With numerous additions and modifications during their history, they were the last great fortification system of antiquity, and one of the most complex and elaborate systems ever built. They were also the largest and strongest fortification in both the ancient and medieval world.

Initially built by Constantine the Great, the walls surrounded the new city on all sides, protecting it against attack from both sea and land. As the city grew, the famous double line of the Theodosian Walls was built in the 5th century. Although the other sections of the walls were less elaborate, they were, when well-manned, almost impregnable for any medieval besieger.
