Vitlycke Rock Carvings and Bronze Age Village

Highlight • Historical Site

Grand open-air museum of Gothenburg University and UNESCO World Heritage Site. Visits and guided tours are free and good due to these public subsidies. In the reconstructed Bronze Age village are always employees in contemporary clothing with interested children and adults archery, excavation or braiding. Also the coffee and the shop invite to visit.

Tanum Rock Carvings

Highlight • Historical Site

Listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site since 1994, the rock sites of Tanum are among the most accomplished artistic expressions of prehistoric art in Northern Europe.

Very numerous and underlined in red to be more visible to ordinary mortals, these thousands of engravings are displayed on large slabs of granite.

They are fascinating because they represent many scenes, but also many humans and animals.

They were created at the beginning of the Bronze Age, more than 2000 years before Christ. These petroglyphs were discovered in the 17th century. Many sites around the museum are visible, and you can easily spend the day exploring.
