A vistit to the Kalmar Castle

In the city park there is a statue of one of the most important Swedish kings, Gustav Wasa. He was king from 1523 until 1560.
He was a taken to prison in Denmark but escaped and landed in Kalmar in 1520.
From there he started to liberate Sweden from the Danes.


After Julias gymnastics we went to the castle, from 12th century. It's a very nice castle with cannons and a big bridge.

Here Marie is sitting on one of the cannons.

The main tower is the oldest part of the castle

Isn't it impressing?
