Krusenstiernska Gården


Krusenstiernska Gården is a 19th-century middle-class home around 500m from the entrance to Kalmar Slott that seems to be delightfully stuck in a timewarp. From May to September, tours of the house are held at noon, 1pm and 2pm, but entry to the beautiful gardens and cafe is free, anytime.
