Vena hometown farm

Hembygdsgården has a scenic setting with a winding stream and a water lily pond. A hometown center of great value for the Venabygden with several buildings of great cultural historical value.
The Käreby cottage was built in Käreby at the end of the 1600s by the military J. Dynkrona and moved in 1940 to the homestead farm. The cottage consists of a large room and kitchen on the ground floor and two rooms upstairs. All rooms have fireplaces and windows with leaded windows. On the walls are hand-painted wallpapers that were kept in their original condition. The larger room upstairs was formerly used as a school room and a communist residence. Once upon a time there lived a priest named Johannes Lind (or possibly Lindner). After finding out, he would be the grandfather of Albert Engström.

In the past, Castenhof from the 1600th century was a cottage under the rectory. Nowadays, it serves as the museum of the homestead.

The belfry from Vena's old church school has been moved to the park where it rings in the hometown parties. There is a linen sauna from Brunsvik and an old loft shed from Fallhult.

Other buildings that the association is responsible for are Bostället and Äspebäcken.

Very scenic, there is a little stage and a pond. Among the old houses, a wild lawn grows in the summer with flowers for the insects. Perfect for those looking for peace and quiet for a coffee. Large gravel road outside to park the car on.
