Karlskova Alfred Nobel and The Church

Great day shown around town by Rolf and Johanna and interesting. We would have driven straight past this place without knowing R&J. so nice one. Alfred Nobel the inventor of dynamite and the Nobel prizes were created from his considerable estate . His last house in Sweden and his laboratories are preserved in this town and also The Bofors Company which Nobel bought when he moved here. A local actor did a great job of showing us around "in character" so it was a lot of fun. Later we went into town and saw the local church
