Discover Kristianstad

Welcome to Kristianstad – a city on the Scanian plains where culture, history and nature meet. Here, you can stroll through charming streets, explore historic landmarks and enjoy delicious food close to the water and green parks.


Nature and excursions


It’s easy to explore the city’s charm by foot, with short distances between squares, parks and cosy neighbourhoods. Just minutes from the city centre lies the unique Kristianstad Vattenrike Biosphere Reserve, designated by UNESCO. Here you’ll also find Sweden’s lowest point, about 2.3 metres below sea level. The area offers rich birdlife, open wetlands and beautiful scenery all year round. You can walk along wooden boardwalks, visit Naturum Vattenriket, or paddle a kayak along the Helge River. For those who enjoy being active, there are scenic routes for cycling and hiking – and for golf enthusiasts, several well-maintained courses nearby.

Visit the magnificent Holy Trinity Church from 1628 – a Renaissance masterpiece and one of the city’s best-known landmarks. For culture lovers, there’s plenty to see and do.
