  • Ahus is one of Sweden's best-preserved mediaeval towns. Even today, there is much to remind tourists of the time when Ahus was a part of Denmark among the cobbled streets in the centre of the Old Town.
  • Ahus Museum is presently housed in the historic Town Hall on the central plaza, only a stone's throw from the majestic church of St Mary (Mariakyrkan).
  • Along the busy harbour promenade, boats and restaurants crowd the shoreline. The remnants of the former castle, Aose Ahus, lie nearby.
  • Ahus has long been renowned as the "source of three Swedish sins": snuff, schnapps, and an abundance of eels.
  • The centuries-old tradition of eel fishing is still alive and well along the coast and in the traditional eel huts here. For many years, the area was also known for its tobacco plantations and producing the "Ahus Havana" cigar.
  • In the late 1800s, every household in Ahus had its own tiny tobacco farm. The last tobacco was harvested in Ahus and Yngsjö in 1964.
  • Schnapps, on the other hand, are still manufactured in Ahus! Even though French investors own the Absolut Company, the famous Absolut vodka is still made in Ahus.
  • During the summer, visitors may learn all about the history of this global hit at the Absolut Showroom in the heart of Ahus.

Spettekaka

#Food

  • Piped batter ribbons form Spettekaka (in English, pyramid cake) onto a conical mould to form that famous shape.
  • Eggs, sugar, and flour are among the ingredients. Traditionally, spettekaka was roasted on a revolving spit above an open fire and ordered by the dozens rather than in portions.
  • People were encouraged to bring their eggs to a spettekaka baker, who would produce the cake.
  • They are now baked in rotating ovens and sold by the number of servings. Height ranges from 6 to 25 inches (16-64 cm).
  • Serve spettekaka with ice cream, whipped cream, or a variety of sauces such as chocolate or caramel.
  • It is frequently served with fresh fruit or berries. A drink of champagne or port rounds out the experience

  • The meal begins with a bowl of black soup that is sweet and sour and created from goose blood and broth. It is heavily spiced with fruit pureés, liqueurs, and herbs and spices like clove, ginger, and a generous amount of brandy.
  • The soup is thick and reddish-black. The soup is accompanied by the neck, liver, heart, and craw, as well as fried wings.
