Cars with real engines drive on paved roads featuring bridges, roundabouts and intersections. The choice of vehicles and the road features highlight two different aspects of the attraction: the models you can choose and the built environment in which the cars drive.
At Åkerbobadet, individual sessions of water aerobics and water-based exercise can be booked. These are two specific activities that you can make a focus of your day. As times are subject to change, check the current municipal booking information in advance. This lets you confirm the activity you want against a specific time and plan accordingly.
Windmill and church history
Högby stenkvarn, also known as Kopparslagarkvarnen, is a 14-metre-high Dutch windmill made of limestone. Its walls are 1.7 metres thick at the base. The height and wall thickness describe different measurements: the height indicates its vertical extent, while the wall thickness refers specifically to the base. The limestone adds material and construction style as further points of interest. Those interested in architecture can use these specific features to understand the mill beyond its name.
Construction of Högby kyrka began in the mid-12th century. Several former church stables are preserved north of the church, and are now cared for by the local heritage association. The construction date places the church in its historical context, while the preserved stables and their present-day upkeep offer a glimpse of past use and current care. The church stables thus add another temporal perspective to the building’s history.
