Tourists come here not only because of the possibility of a ferry crossing to Denmark. Helsingborg has a beautiful, well-kept and historic old town. Kärnan Castle , from which an impressive tower has been preserved to our times, is definitely worth seeing. The church of the Virgin Mary (Sankta Maria kyrka), which has been built for 100 years, as well as the very interesting Medical Museum (Medicinhistoriska museet), are also worth noting. Helsingborg, thanks to its convenient location, can be a good base for exploring the south of Sweden and the north of Denmark.
