Why Läckö Castle matters
Läckö Castle rises from a headland on Lake Vänern, Sweden's largest lake. With white walls, a red roof and tall towers it looks as if it came from a fairy tale. Medieval origins and baroque additions blend together, and the interior shows grand rooms and exhibitions. Summer is the main season, with garden walks and lake views, and it is an excellent day trip from Gothenburg by car.
