Timeline
13:51
Grab a slice of pizza and a drink at Shiraz12. It is a reliable spot to warm up and start your evening before heading out.
14:51
Walk over to Linnés Sävja. This was Linne’s private refuge, so the atmosphere is more intimate than his main university grounds. The main building houses a museum and a café, but you are here for the grounds and the view.
15:21
Find a quiet corner on the farm grounds to watch the sun set. In winter, the light fades quickly, but the golden hour provides a soft, warm glow over the historic buildings and surrounding fields.
16:06
End your visit with a hot drink in the museum café. It is the perfect way to relax after the evening air and reflect on the history of the site.
Local tip
