Läckö Castle
Läckö Castle is best known as Magnus de la Gardie´s magnificent castle on the shores of Lake Vänern, but it is much older by far. In 1298 Brynolf Algotsson, Bishop of Skara, laid the foundations for a fortified castle here.
The exhibitions of Läckö castle are very popular and attract thousands of visitors every year.
During July and August an opera is held in the evenings in the courtyard.
