Just outside Kristinehamn, you'll find the enchanting Österviks kapell, a truly special place idyllically set near the shores of Lake Vänern. This beautiful neo-Gothic chapel is more than just a place of worship; it also houses a historic school hall and what's said to be Sweden's very first school canteen. Take your time to wander through the surrounding park, and also the free farm with animals close by, especially lovely in the spring, and discover the old dairy which now serves as a sculpture museum.
