Nice little town with a harbor and various shops. Some chic houses in town. The place is known for the great ship setting Ales Stenar and also serves as the setting in the Wallander novels.

Ales Stenar (Ale's Stones)

Highlight • Monument

They also consist of a total of 59 stones placed vertically in the shape of a ship's hull. Measured against the usual ship setting in Sweden, which occurs quite frequently, Ales Stenar has enormous dimensions with a length of 67 meters and a width of 19 meters. The two stones that represent the bow and stern are each about three meters high and about twice the height of the other stones. The weight of the individual stones is between 500 and 1,800 kg.

It is also very nice to continue walking after viewing Ales Stenar. Through the gates you walk through beautiful farmland.
