A nice little town

Kristinehamn is a smallish, provincial but very friendly town in Wermland county. Quite close to the seaside too! Has a lot of nice old preserved architecture buildings around the city centre. The archipelago is also famous and very much appreciated by everyone who gets there. I also enjoy the seaside looking out at Vänern. Kristinehamn has also an interesting local history.
