Gammelstad Church Town

Declared a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 1996, Gammelstads Kyrkstad is one of the world's best-preserved and most extensive church towns. Once common throughout Sweden, these towns centered around a church and a cluster of wooden houses. These residences were used only on Sundays and during religious festivals by those who were forced to spend the night in town due to the distance and unfavorable conditions between the church and their home. Skirted by 424 charming wooden houses, the Nederluleå Church is the centerpiece of Gammelstad, built in the 15th Century. Inside lie Medieval frescoes and a 16th-century altarpiece that is considered to be one of the finest of its kind in Sweden. Surrounded by quaint cottages, dappled with snow in winter, the entire scene is picture-perfect, like a life-sized version of the inside of a snow globe.

Nederluleå Church

The largest medieval church in Norrland, Nederluleå Church has a long-standing history dating back to 1492. Inaugurated by the Archbishop of Uppsala, Jakob Ulvsson, this church features high vaulted ceilings, a beautifully carved porch, golden lamps, medieval frescos, a choir and a crucifix. Nederluleå Church is a part of the UNESCO World Heritage Site, Gammelstad Church Town. The sublime and tranquil ambiance of this church makes it well worth a visit.

Rödberget Fortress

Part of one of Sweden's most elaborate, ambitious and confidential defense fortifications, Rödberget is the repository of close to 100 years of military history sheltered within a labyrinthine fort of mammoth proportions. One of the five primary fortifications that make up the Boden Fortress, construction on the Rödberget Fort began in 1901 with subsequent alterations during and in between the two World Wars and the Cold War. Decommissioned in 1998, the mysterious artillery, that had spawned so many a legend, was thrown open to the public. Guided tours of the fortress offer an insight into the daily lives of the soldiers who lived, worked and fought here, as well as a glimpse into war-time strife. At the end of a narrow winding road, across wooded slopes and steep terrain, the fortress rises like a hulking behemoth, crouching in a moat atop the mountain crest - an imposing guard to ward off enemies approaching from the east.
