Welcome to Laholm!
Laholm – an idyll to revisit

Laholm can be described in so many different ways. An untouched village idyll, a beach paradise suitable for children, a wonderful ski area, a fisherman's dream, an eldorado for nature lovers or the little city with large artwork. No matter which of the region's attractions you choose to investigate, you will not be disappointed. Laholml is an idyll to revisit. Year round.

Untouched village idyll Laholm

Laholm, Halland Province's oldest town, has understood the value of preserving its historic roots. In the Gamleby neighbourhood’s winding alleys one can still sense reverberations of the Middle Ages, while Stortorget is dominated by a beautiful town hall from the late 1700s. The remainder of the Laholm region is rich in history, too. In Knäred lies the place where Denmark and Sweden made peace in 1613. In Hasslöv you are transported all the way back to the Bronze Age. There you can visit a 3,000-year-old grave with a museum.

Beach paradise suitable for children

Mellbystrand and Skummeslövsstrand, Laholm's bathing areas, offer 12 kilometres of sandy beaches with gradually increasing depths. Mellbystrand and Skummeslöv, Laholm's bathing areas, offer 12 kilometres of sandy beaches with gradually increasing depths. Awaiting you here are saltwater swimming and pleasant relaxation in the sand dunes. For those who prefer freshwater bathing, there are many fine lakes and bathing facilities.  
 
A wonderful ski area
Enthroned along Laholm's southern border is Hallandsås, which in winter morphs into a paradise for skiers. Here you will find two complete ski facilities, skating rinks and cross-country trails. In summer the same slopes offer breathtaking rides on a toboggan-like rodel!

  

Fisherman's dream
It is not by chance that three salmon swim in Laholm's city arms. Lagan is considered one of Sweden's best salmon and trout waters, like Smedjeån and Edenbergaån. Or why not try your fishing luck in some of Laholm's beautiful lakes?  

An eldorado for nature lovers
Laholm offers glorious and varied nature. The question is simply how you want to experience it. On foot, by canoe, on horseback or perhaps from the seat of a bike? All around the municipality there are fine routes, often with overnight accommodations along the road.  

The little city with large artwork
An art-obsessed mayor placed Laholm on the art map early. On an art stroll in the city centre you can enjoy more than 30 official works of art. Laholm also is home to the Nordic region's only Drawing Museum. And don't miss a visit to Konsthallen in Hishult, which features modern art, a Zen Buddhist garden and a delightful sculpture park.
