    Originally built in the 16th century and rebuilt after fires, the hilltop castle overlooks the city of Uppsala. The palace garden is now a botanical garden.

      Not only can you climb the castle 🏰, but also the art museum and a historical museum, "Uppsala Slottsmuseum," within the castle. Both are very interesting and free of charge. In front of the castle stands the wooden Gunillia Tower.
