Welcome to Kungälv´s Youth Hostel! The hostel is open during the whole year. For single travellers: 1/4 to 30/9 and the whole year for groups.
Kungälv is a small town, with a very interesting history, about 15 kilometres north of Gothenburg. The hostel is situated next to the fortress "Bohus Fästning" that was built by Haakon V Magnusson in 1308 to defend the borderlines.
Every year we arrange Kungahälla Medieval Days (week 29 Friday-Sunday).
Come listen to music and see the jesters perform, make the ultimate time travel and visit the market, magical alley and the oriental playground down by the pond. Watch as the thundering horses come out on to the tournament play arena with brave knights ready to jaust.
Craftsmen and merchants of all kinds from Sweden and Europe, fortune tellers, sausage wranglers and all in between will catch your eye at the merchants row, and if you are thirsty or hungry, make your way to the court yard for some good eating and a nice cold beer. Welcome to one of the largest medieval festivals in Sweden - Kungahälla Medieval Days.
