Midsummer is ancient history in the Nordic region. Already in ancient times, the longest day, the summer solstice, was an important feast. We celebrate the return of summer, fertility, mystery and love. On Vitlycke museum, we celebrate this day with an exciting and mysterious program.

The celebration starts at 13.00 when we decorate our maypole which we do in the manner of an old local tradition. We end our celebration of the longest day of the year at 15.30 with a torchlight procession.

Warm welcome to Vitlycke Museum and the World Heritage Tanum rock carvings.
