Situated in the North East corner of the island, Old Perithia is an abandoned village steeped in history, dating back to the 14th century. Once home to a vibrant farming community, this charming village offers an inviting space for exploration, with its medieval stone houses and churches. It’s also a great place to unwind and savour the moment, relishing a delightful drink at one of the local tavernas.

This Anglesey Abbey Gardens & Lode Mill sit on 64 hectares of vast land where one can see and appreciate the simplicity of nature and its vibrant colours. Inside you can find a collection of amazing fine furnishings, books, paintings and even other fabulous objects like rare silver clocks.

The Långe Jan lighthouse — 'Tall John' — first cast its light over the Baltic waves on November 1, 1785. Rising from the craftsmanship of, perhaps, Russian prisoners of war, it stands as a beacon of history and maritime safety on Öland's southernmost point. Initially measuring a soaring 36 meters and requiring a 197-step ascent, it now proudly stretches to 41.6 meters, claiming the title of Sweden's loftiest lighthouse. Once cradling an open flame against the Nordic sky, Långe Jan has seen transformations from bare stone, borrowed from a bygone chapel, to a whitewashed pillar with a distinguishing black band. Surrounded by the thriving Ottenby bird station, Långe Jan's legacy is as enduring as the coastal winds, welcoming visitors each summer to scale its heights and embrace a panoramic sweep of sea and sky.
