Grand Lit - 140cm - Garden view - Nunnery
This is one of the buildings preserved from the medieval nunnery and is one of Sweden's oldest buildings; St. Birgittas monastery from the 14th century. The austere style of the rooms is reminiscent of the nuns' simple environment, but the comfort corresponds to today's modern requirements. From the room you can also see the large brick house which doesn't look that remarkable but is really just remarkable. This is Sweden's oldest non-religious building, originally a royal palace from 1253.
Grand Lit room is a little bit smaller room than our normal double rooms, and has a grand lit bed that is 140 cm wide.
History of the Klosterhotellet
The Nunnery's Crosswalk (once used for sacral processions) is here as well as the glass door that leads you out to the Gräsgården. The lawn was named after Saint Birgitta. Here they had planted the most beautiful flowers, the most fragrant herbs and some shady trees that would attract birds and butterflies. The meaning of the grass yard was that the nuns would stay in this enchanting environment and think; "When it is this beautiful on earth, how beautiful will it not be in heaven?" From the garden you can also see the large brick house which doesn't look that remarkable but really is remarkable. This is Sweden's oldest non-religious building, originally a royal palace from 1253, here is the King's Hall. Next to the King's Hall is the Nuns' chapter hall with the beautiful wall paintings. At the top of each door into the hotel rooms are different names of people, these are the people who donated money for the renovation during the 1950s.
