In Luleå, where the sky holds the potential for enchantment, keep an extra eye on the clear weather, especially during times of heightened solar activity or specific seasons. If you're fortunate, the stunning Northern Lights, Aurora Borealis, might grace the heavens with their spectacular dance. To enhance your chances of witnessing this celestial display, venture away from the city centre's light pollution. For first-time visitors, seeking guidance from the Luleå Tourist Center in Kulturens Hus is recommended.

The church was built 1725 by Ivan Skok, a famous master of the Dalmatian Baroque. The chapel has a big altar, harmonious facade with a Baroque portal and a magnificent rosette. The side walls have oval Baroque windows. A famous painter of decorative frescos Eugenio Moretti Varese is the author of the altarpieces. The church was consecrated in 1760.

In the summer, you can hike or bike the trails. In winter, however, there is much more to do. If you have never had the chance, be sure to try Nordic skiing, dog sled rides, and snowshoeing in the winter. Check out the center's event calendar!

Val d’Orcia conjures up everything you picture when you think of Tuscany—rolling hills, cypress-lined roads, and quiet hill towns. It’s a protected UNESCO site, partly because of the landscape, partly because of how little it’s changed over the centuries. Pienza is the standout—it was designed as the 'ideal city' during the Renaissance and still feels unusually well put together. The Abbey of Sant’Antimo is a peaceful stop, tucked into the countryside. And if you're into wine, this is Brunello country—some of the best reds in Italy. Even just driving through is half the experience.
