The Tourist Attractions of Vasteras:
ArosFortet

ArosFortet is an indoor adventure game for small groups of 3 to 4 people. It involves moving through rooms and solving puzzles. Motion sensors and laser lights control the action and you have to move quickly to solve the problems. It’s a unique and exciting way to spend an afternoon in Vasteras, and great for the whole family.

Museum of Art

The Museum of Art opened in Vasteras in 1972, but has only been at its current location since 2010. Most of the art on display is Swedish, and includes both historic pieces as well as many unique contemporary works. Travelling and temporary exhibitions keep the museum fresh and hence it always has something new to see.

Anundshog

Anundshog is the largest burial mound in Sweden, and you can see a number of large runestones that were erected between the Bronze and Iron Ages. There are 2 large "stone ship" patterns of stone markers near the mound itself.

Vasteras Cathedral

Some parts of Vasteras Cathedral were built in the 13th century but over the years, many areas have been rebuilt and restored. There was a major renovation starting in 1958 for example. The architectural style is brick gothic, and there is one tall spire and a bell tower, making this one of Vasteras’ major landmarks.

Engso Castle

Though not a castle in the medieval sense, Engso Castle resembles a large mansion home more than anything. Inside has been furnished in the 1700s period style and the castle is particularly famous for being haunted. The grounds are well-groomed and there is an old church next door for some added scenery. If you don't speak Swedish, you should really take the English-language tour as many of the placards with information are in Swedish only.

Logarangen

When it’s time to unwind, the park and beaches at Logarangen is a popular spot with tourists and locals alike. There are also swimming pools and a few water slides there to enjoy for a day out from Vasteras.
