If you’re looking for a day-trip destination, we can help out. Sitting 16 miles away, Vimmerby is worth getting in the car for. Astrid Lindgren’s World, Astrid Lindgrens Childhood Home and Astrid Lindgren’s Nas alone justify the drive. The locals are also likely to point you in the direction of Linkoping, 35 miles away. If you can only see one thing here, make sure it’s Saab Arena. (But we’d also highly recommend Old Town Linkoping and Gamla Linkoping Open-Air Museum.)
