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.

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.
