Trelleborg is a fascinating holiday destination as it is one of Skane's oldest cities. The name stems from a certain type of Viking Age fortress known as a trelleborg. Trelleborgen is the only remaining Viking fortress on Swedish soil. In the summer you can watch live theatre on site.

Book a weekend in Trelleborg and amble through the Medieval town, where beautiful historical buildings can be seen near Gamla Torg. Visit Axel Ebbes Konsthall and admire works by the district's great sculptor. Then stroll along to Trelleborgs Museum where there are art exhibitions on various themes, such as the Stone Age. You can climb to the top of Vattentornet, the water tower which is an iconic sight, as well as a great observation deck where you can enjoy spectacular views.

Make sure to pay a visit to Smygehuk, the southernmost point in Sweden. The stunning cape east of Trelleborg is surrounded by stony shores. You will always be close to a white sand beach, as the municipality has 35 kilometres of coastline.

The coastal location has always been advantageous, as Trelleborg has been an important transportation hub in the Baltic Sea. From here the ferry service is frequent, which is useful if you want to continue your holiday on the continent. Buses and the Pagatagen Trains are reliable, but there are also great bicycle paths, so why not explore the area on two wheels?
