    During / until the UFO was repaired, two dead members of the crew were temporarily buried here.

      It is not a grave ... Rather a sightseeing monument. But it was only seen by one person ?!

        A very bizarre spot in the forest, not far from the coast.

        Almost even more exciting than the crash site, however, is the story of the alleged observer, Gösta Carlsson.

        The then-railroad signalman was on his way home on Saturday, May 18, 1946, when he saw lights in the forest and found the UFO. He later realized he was covered in golden dust. However, it wasn't stardust, but birch pollen. From this, the man subsequently devised a homeopathic formula, quit his job, and founded the company "Cernelle." In just a few years, he became a multimillionaire and became known as "The Pollen King." As a generous donor, he helped, among other things, the Ängelholm ice hockey club "Rögle BK" achieve promotion to the first division.

        It wasn't until 26 years after the encounter in the forest, in 1972, that he publicly reported the UFO sighting and had this small memorial erected. In 2003, Gösta Carlsson died at the age of 85.
