Nittsjö is home to the White Guide-listed restaurant Solgårdskrogen, run by Jonathan and Genevieve Bjurenstedt. In a rural setting, food is cooked from scratch using ingredients from their own vegetable garden, the forest and local producers. Open daily in summer.
Pottery with a 100-year tradition. One of our country's oldest craft companies, which occupies a top position in the ceramic art industry. Today, a variety of stoneware and earthenware products are manufactured here and there are also factory sales.
Amtjärnsbrottet is an old open-cast mine where iron ore was once mined. Today, the quarry is filled with clear turquoise water, creating an almost fairytale-like setting surrounded by steep rock walls and forest.
The old Dalhalla limestone quarry is a spectacular outdoor stage in the middle of the Dalmatian forests. Discovered by chance in the early 1990s, Dalhalla is now one of Europe's most powerful and beautiful concert venues.
It is an old limestone quarry, protected for its unique geology. The light-colored limestone walls and the open environment give the place an exciting, dramatic character.
