Karlsborg Attractions

At Karlsborg (pop. 4,000) the Göta Canal runs into Lake Vättern. Karlsborg Fort, built in the 19th century, is still of military importance. In the event of war, the fortress would have served as the reserve capital of Sweden. Within the ring of walls and moats are a number of separate buildings; the Museum and the park are open to the public.
Views
From Road 195, which leads south from Mölltorp, there are fine views of the long island of Visingsö, the town of Jönköping at the south end of Lake Vättern and the attractively situated suburb of Bankeryd.
