If you are looking for a place to enjoy nature, the sun and the water in Virserum, Kaffeberget is a perfect choice. Kaffeberget is a bathing place in Virserum's lake, which is located below the Central School in the southern part of the village. Here you can swim from jetties, sunbathe on the lawn or have a picnic in the shade of the trees. There are also changing rooms and an outdoor terrace for your convenience.

Kaffeberget is not only a bathing place, but also a historical and cultural attraction. The name comes from the time when the villagers used to go up the mountain to drink coffee and look at the view of the lake and the surroundings. There is also a monument on the mountain in memory of Nils Dacke, the legendary leader of the peasant revolt against Gustav Vasa in the 1500th century. Dacke is said to have hid in a cave on the mountain when he was being chased by the king's troops.

Kaffeberget is easy to reach by car, bicycle or on foot from the center of Virserum. It is only a few hundred meters from Virserum Art Gallery, which is a modern art museum with exciting exhibitions and events. If you want something to eat or drink, you can visit Restaurang och Pizzeria Betjänten or Café Eken, which is located near the art gallery.

Kaffeberget is a lovely and selling place that offers something for all tastes and interests. Whether you want to swim, sunbathe, picnic, hike, cycle or discover history and culture, you won't be disappointed. Kaffeberget is a gem in Virserum that is waiting for you!
