Kapelludden
A small headland on Öland's east coast, where a red-and-white lighthouse stands beside the ruins of a medieval chapel. A good place for bird-watching and sea views.
Kapelludden is near Borby on the east coast. The headland is home to a small lighthouse built in 1872 and the ruins of the medieval St. Birgitta's Chapel, said to be linked to a landing place used by 12th-century pilgrims. It is also a bird-watching site for migratory birds, and the gentle shoreline makes it ideal for a stroll. Entry is free. It can be combined with the windmills in the center and Ismantorp Fortress.
