Located in one of the oldest buildings in Kinda with a rich cultural heritage. A pharmacy already in the 18th Century. In the 1840´s this building housed the first Emigration Office of Sweden and on display in the museum are letters, photos, documents and objects from the first organised emigration from Kisa to North America. Carl Gustaf Sundius, a pharmacist with radical ideas, influenced the farmer and miller Peter Cassel to emigrate with a company of 21 persons and in doing so, he paved the way for the big wave of emigration from Sweden to North America already in 1845.
Kindas rich cultural heritage from the emigration period is still very much alive today.

Beautiful landscape, cultivated since the iron age BC 500. A short 2 km trail and good possibilities to swim in the lake. Bring a pique-nique!

Sightseeing
The Göta Canal (Swedish: Göta kanal) was a Swedish canal constructed in the early 19th century. In Berg, near Linköping, it is nice to watch the boats passing the locks in the canall. Great icecream, mini golf and lawns for a great picknick near lake Roxen.
