General information
 
   

Läckö Castle stands on a rocky headland on the south shore of Läke Vänern. From the windows on the north side your can see the lake as far as the eye can see. Below the palace to the north west you will find the guest harbour and the jetty from which you can take a tour of beautiful Ekens archipelago on board M/S Magnus Gabriel. Our popular camping site is situated on the other side of the harbour inlet. Next to the camping site you can hire a kayak and paddle out to the archipelago. To the South East of the palace you will find a beach, the café and pedal boats.

West of the harbour is an ongoing project which began in summer 2007 in connection with the celebration of H.R.H. Crown Princess Victorias 30-year birthday. In the unique nature of Västergötland and the cultural environment of Lake Vänern and Läckö Castles, a meeting place is being projected : "Naturum Vänerskärgården - Victoriahuset".

The Museum Shop

In the Läckö Museum shop you can find artefacts and literature associated with the history of the palace. How about a material in cotton and flax printed with the pattern of a painting in the castle, cushions, aprons and kettle-holders? There is also a popular souvenir in the brass candlestick which is a replica of the one on the third floor of the castle. In this shop you can also find garden tools of all sorts and local handicraft, souvenirs, tea and sweets. Children have their own corner with weapon shields, swords and princess crowns.
