Kristianstad destination image

Visit Skåne Län on a family holiday to Sweden. Find a cheap self-drive holiday or a cheap weekend break for the whole family at Risskov and get away to Kristianstad, which has plenty to offer. It's a nice place to shop, and you can also find small cafés and shops with art from Skåne. You can also visit the film museum where they have interesting exhibitions.

The town was founded in 1614 by the Danish King Christian IV as a fortress town to serve as Skåne's bulwark against Sweden. In 1612, Swedish troops had destroyed the important trading town of Væ in north-eastern Skåne. Christian IV encouraged the citizens of Væ to move to the new town of Kristianstad. Kristianstad still has its founder Christian IV's monogram, a 4 in a crowned C, in its coat of arms and uses it extensively on lamp posts and other municipal installations. It is the only city in the world to have the monogram of a foreign king in its coat of arms. Find child-friendly hotels in the area and set off on a family holiday at your own pace with Risskov.
