Norrköping - Eriksgatan

Eriksgatan, the old main road between Götaland and Svealand, ran through the Kolmård area from the Krokek inn to Unnerberg Castle. A forerunner of our present-day inns was the Monastery of Our Lady (Vårfruklostret) in Kolmård, which provided accommodation for travelers. Stones from the ruins of the monastery were used in the construction of a chapel and later of the old church of Krokek (1747), now also in ruins.
