Polkagris bakery and ruins

Just a stone’s throw from the restaurant lies the Brahehus ruin, the place for hosting balls and other gatherings of Count Per Brahe, which he never had the chance to live in before it burned down.

Additionally, the site features a gas station and a rest area with tables and benches.
