Overview of these webpages

Picture of Romperöd Unfortunately there is no English version of these web pages. However, most of the information can be found in the invitation (in PDF). For the rest, we will be glad to assist you in translating any information you might need.

The page "Vigsel, bröllopsfest och dagen efter" contains essentially the information given above.

"Kartor och vägbeskrivning" contains maps of Glimåkra with surroundings and directions how to get there. We have translated the directions how to get from Stockholm to Glimåkra and from Glimåkra to the Arvidsson manor Romperöd into English. See also the maps below.

"Tips om boende" are suggestions where you could stay (the same as in the invitation).

The page "Litet turistinformation" gives suggestions of places worth visiting in the province of Skåne. For most of the links there are alternatives in English in the invitation, and for the rest there should be English versions of the pages if you just follow the links.

On the page "Romperöd och skotsk höglandsboskap" there are some pictures of the Arvidsson manor Romperöd.

Finally, "Önskelista" contains our wedding wish list.

Directions from Stockholm to Glimåkra

Drive south from Stockholm on the E4 highway (signposted towards Helsingborg) past Jönköping, Värnamo and Ljungby.

In Traryd, take the exit for road 120 and drive towards Älmhult. In Älmhult, follow road 23 towards Osby. Drive through the first roundabout in Osby (Osby Norra/North). In the second roundabout, Osby Södra/South, follow the signs left towards Glimåkra.

When you get to Glimåkra, turn left towards Lönsboda at the first big (well) four-way crossing. Follow the street Storgatan until you see the church on your right.

The Glimåkra Folk High School is just one hundred meters away from the church. There are parking places both beside the church and in front of the folk high school.

Directions from Glimåkra to the Arvidsson Manor Romperöd

From the church or folk high school, return to the street Storgatan and turn right. Then turn left into Boaltsvägen. Now you should have the sawmill on your right. At the T-crossing, turn right into Fabriksgatan. You are now leaving Glimåkra. Approximately one and a half kilometre after the 90 km/h signs, look for a small gravelled road on the left with a red sign saying "Romperöd". Turn left and follow the road straight on and then as it curves to the right until you reach the manor.
