Mariestad Guest Harbor

Highlight • Structure

Nice harbor along the edge of the lake with great food, drink, and ice cream options. I suggest ordering a generous scoop of your favorite ice cream and enjoying it in the sunshine.

Lyrestad Drawbridge

Highlight • Bridge

Anyone interested in drawbridges can see one in action here.
This one is for motor vehicles, and about 500 meters away is one for trains.

The railway bridge in Lyrestad is a swing bridge that dates back to 1908. It is operated on site by the bridge keeper, who also ensures that train traffic is blocked with platform barriers and everything else.
