    Nimis is a work of art near Arild am Kullaberg.

    Nimis, the temporarily very controversial work by the artist Lars Vilks, is hidden on the north side of the Kullaberg near Arild, about 12 kilometers north of Höganäs.

    Nimis (abundance) is a labyrinth of various towers, mostly made of driftwood, at the foot of the cliffs. In the meantime, the constructions have reached a total weight of 75 tons.


    The facility, which was started by Lars Vilks in 1980, was the subject of a yearlong legal battle between the local building authority and the artist. The authorities quickly declared the work of art a building for which no building permit had been granted in the nature reserve. In the course of the dispute, Vilks proclaimed the area around Nimis in 1996 in protest of the Micronation of Ladonia. However, the authorities finally did not implement the approval of the demolition of the plant, which was ultimately obtained by court.

    Nimis has now become a tourist attraction and can only be reached on foot via a small, marked path from Heimathof Himmelstorp. The path leads through relatively steep and rough terrain, so sturdy shoes and good physical condition are required.

      Driftwood sculpture designs by artist Lars Vilks and part of the Micronation Ladonien. It consists of a series of labyrinthine towers and corridors. The artwork is not easy to find as it is not signposted or recorded in maps for obvious reasons. The best way to find Nimis, and therefore Ladonia, is to start at Himmelstorp, a well-preserved 18th-century homestead, and follow a path marked with yellow "N" s, which starts easily but becomes increasingly impassable.
