Marstrand

What is the next name on the list? Marstrand will be the answer! Marstrand is notable for two things: an old fortress and sailing. Marstrand has been a city since 1200. The annual Match Cup Sweden, a significant sailing competition, is held in this seaside village on an island in western Sweden. The Carlsten Fortress, a spectacular stone building that guards the city, was built in the 17th century.

Marstrand, which is a wonderful day excursion from Gothenburg, is described by visitors as a "Kodak moment", so come prepared to shoot a lot of photos of the beautiful, pastel-colored old buildings that line the cobblestone streets. The Strandverket Art Museum, the renovated Pater Noster Lighthouse, and gorgeous hiking paths are among the other attractions that you should not miss when visiting Marstrand.
