Historic Strength and Coastal Views at Varberg Fortress

#holidayitinerary Varberg Fortress is a striking landmark that dominates the coastline and offers a fascinating mix of history and scenery. Built in the late 13th century, the fortress has stood through wars and shifting borders, and today it is a peaceful place to explore. Walking along the thick stone walls gives a real sense of the past, while the sweeping views over the sea and town are simply stunning.
