OUR FAMILY ASSESSMENT

Family Intelligence

Örebro Castle has two things built for children. Barnens torn, the children’s tower, is made for play, mischief and adventure. Down in the cellar vaults, the little ghost Laban needs help finding the castle’s treasures before the thief gets to them. Grown-ups get the historic guided tour of the castle, which comes with the entry ticket. Lill-Annas slottscafé on the ground floor of one of the towers serves cakes, buns and bread from its own bakery as well as a light lunch. The trade-off is space: pushchairs cannot come inside and have to be left in the pushchair parking at the bottom of the entrance tower, so small children will need to be carried or walk. From 23 October to 1 November the castle runs Spökstaden, a ghost town programme with activities for small and older children and adults; it is listed with a separate ticket, but no price is given.
