Gustavsberg Travel Guide

Tourist Guide

The town of Gustavsberg, a 20 minute drive from Stockholm, is a historical industry town with a population of 11,333. The town dates back to 1640. There are still several old houses that were used by the workers at the famous porslain industry. Today these houses and cottages have been restored and sold to private residents. But the houses are still a reminder of a town that used to be a flourishing industry town.

A couple of km from Bulland? lies this private owned open farm,Siggesta G?rd. There's a restaurant with great local ingredients, from vegetables to meat and fish. The farm also hosts a popular mini golf course, a mini zoo, horse riding and other outdoor activities.
Here, half an hour from Stockholm city, you'll find this nice beach, a bistro and a popular cafe. The beach is crowded during summer and a spot where loitering teenagers like to loiter around. But both bistro and cafe are worth a little detour.
V?rmd? is an island east of Stockholm city. It also serves as the gateway to the outer archipelago. V?rmd? is big and holds a number of attractions and sights to visit.
