Step back to the 14th century at Kärnan, Helsingborg’s iconic medieval tower. Climb to the top for breathtaking views of the city and the Öresund, explore historic floors once used for daily life and hosting powerful guests, and discover Helsingborg’s fascinating past.

Don’t miss Kärnan, Helsingborg’s iconic medieval tower that has stood for centuries as a symbol of the city. Once part of a grand castle, Kärnan is one of the few remaining structures, offering visitors a glimpse into Helsingborg’s medieval past. Climb the 146 steps to the top terrace for sweeping views over Helsingborg and across the Öresund to Denmark.

Explore each floor to see how this historic tower functioned as a residence, from daily life on the second floor's Borgherrestugan to the luxury of the third-floor Borgherrevåningen, which housed influential figures of the time.

Experience the unique history and stories Kärnan holds within its walls, offering a journey back to the 14th century in the heart of Helsingborg.
