HUSEBY BRUK
New premiere for
Elisabeth’s Garden
Elisabeth Stephens had green fingers. At the end of the 19th
century, the lady of the manor usually did. The garden, especially
the kitchen garden, was the woman’s domain and responsibility.
So, when Joseph Stephens arrived in a landau in 1881
with his wife at Huseby Bruk and the elegant manor
just south of Växjö, Elisabeth Stephens designed the
park in English and German style – stunningly beautiful
and tended by the caring hand of a woman.
At the time, a large kitchen garden was also a status
symbol. A manor with style should be self-sufficient in
vegetables, root vegetables, fruit and berries. A
number of different varieties of the same species were
often planted to ripen at different times – from Easter
preferably into early autumn.
The gardens at Huseby were admired in their time,
and the same gardens will once more attract attention
in summer 2012. All winter, gardener Sara Arvidsson
has prepared for the theme year ‘Elisabeth’s Garden’.
In the greenhouses, Sara has carefully tended the plants
that will be planted out in the park in spring – a task of
great responsibility. Many of the plants are progenies
of the individual plants that Elisabeth Stephens bought
and put into the soil more than a hundred years ago.
The park at Huseby is unique. The grounds have
been cultivated and managed without interruption
since the late 1880s and preserved in form and
plant material!
The renovation of the kitchen garden at Huseby
began ten years ago. With the help of pictures,
shopping lists and maps from archives, the vegetable
beds have been recreated according to Elisabeth
Stephens’s designs.
A garden is a living thing, and the kitchen garden
has undergone extensive renovation. Elisabeth
Stephens would probably have been as proud if she
had seen the greenery in her kitchen garden as Sara
Arvidsson is of having planted beans, artichokes and
other things that belong in a manor house kitchen.
Even Huseby’s fowl are back. This summer, the
octagonal henhouse will have new inhabitants, and
peacocks will strut along the gravel paths.
Enjoy the summer garden at Huseby and take the
opportunity to buy fruit, berries and vegetables. If you
have your own garden, you can buy some of Elisabeth
and Sara’s organically grown plants. See page 34.

SPIRA
6
| www.visitsmaland.se
Spira brings
together culture,
art and design
The architects were chosen carefully, as was the place. The
decorations were created with a Småland feel, and even the
opening date was chosen with care: 11/11/11! Jönköping’s new
meeting place for dramatic art, the Spira Culture Centre,
brings together art and design on many levels.
Long before Spira opened by the shore of Lake
Munksjön in Jönköping on 11 November last year,
it had attracted attention for its beautiful and spectacular architecture.
It became clear early on that the culture centre
would become a new landmark. Star architects Gert
Wingårdh and Jonas Edblad designed Spira with lots of
space and glass. Already in the foyer, visitors are met
by Ingegerd Råman’s imaginative glass art, the Spira
lamp, and on the façade, no less than 6000 square
metres of glass open up to the light – with impressive
vistas of nature. The inspiration was of course taken
from Småland’s traditional craft of glass-blowing. At
the same time, the province’s characteristic magical
forests are reflected in the clean pine walls, and in the
concert hall, the audience can look up at the magical
starry Småland sky in the ceiling.
The restaurant menu with its local produce is just
as characteristic of Småland, and Spira’s multi-awardwinning chef Tommy Myllymäki puts together a food
culture as an important part of the overall experience.
Outside, the culture centre also gets people talking
– literally. The playful sound flowers ‘Resonance’ are
signed by Milo Lavén. The large-scale interactive work
of art with inbuilt headphones glows and pulsates in
the evening and at night in time with the footsteps
of passers-by. Every flower also has its own characteristic sound – so if several people work together,
it is possible to create a whole orchestra of echoes
and rhythms.
Landmark, food culture, art experience! But it is as
a culture centre that Spira will elevate dramatic art in
Jönköping. And there is plenty of space for performers
– with 15,000 square metres, the architects have put
in no fewer than four stages. Here, Smålands Musik
och Teater will put on 800 performances and concerts
a year. Calling everyone who loves drama, music,
comedy – and art! See page 39.

SJÖN ÅSNEN
The magic
bite
Sjöviken is smooth as glass, the reeds are quiet and the silence is broken
only by the light splashes of children’s feet in the water. We found the
bamboo fishing rod in the shed and dug up the worms in the compost by
the gooseberry bush. Now all our eyes are on the float out there among
the leaves of the water lilies.
Then suddenly! The expected, yet unexpected. The bite!
A splash, the float disappears into the water. A desperate
grip on the rod as it bends. A quick glimpse of a dark tail fin...
the fish looks big. Is it still on the hook? Dad, get the net!
A fishing adventure in Småland can start with the whole
family on a freshly tarred jetty, from a rowing boat on a
tranquil lake, trolling on Lake Vättern or angling with a fly
in flowing water.
Småland not only offers a wide range of fishing for beginners
and anglers, it also has a wide range of fish species. Perch,
pike and pike-perch are typical fish. The chances of catching
a bream, eel, salmon or sea trout are also good.
The lakes, rivers and streams in Småland are clean – and
full of fish – but no holiday adventure can match the anxious
wait for the float, the magic bite and frying your own perch
for lunch.

Nature’s
beauty
Beautiful nature leaves no one unmoved – an old twisted oak, a meadow
bursting with dandelion flowers, a pillar hall of fir trees in a magical
fairytale forest. Mysticism and silence, or the sound of a black woodpecker
pecking away laboriously in the distance or the cricket’s entertainment by
your feet... the beautiful music of nature.
p.45
Many of nature’s wonders can be found in our exciting nature
reserve. Sometimes wild landscapes, often easily accessible. Here
and there, Småland’s primitive rock rises boldly above the spruce
forest, and roaring waterfalls boast their natural power. The old
forest has aged gracefully, and the ravines whisper an even older
story. Strange phenomena.
On a cycle you can head for new horizons. Choose your own
routes or marked paths. Follow a babbling brook and stop for a
break at a lake with swimming to recharge your pedal power.
Or, if you prefer, put on your walking boots and go on foot.
Experience the natural rhythm of life – the ultimate nature feeling.
There is something special about unspoilt nature with its
original beauty – just the way you’ll find it in Småland.

Summer hunt for creepy crawlies
Children are inquisitive. With magnifying glass in hand,
they can discover a completely new world. Every week,
all summer, a nature guide from Naturum Kronoberg takes
the little ones in search of creepy crawlies at the edge
of the forest and waters around Huseby. Together,
they look for creepy crawlies, identify species and p.17
learn how they live – and survive!

Advent ures underground
Only the occasional ray of light finds its way

underground journey of discovery through
twisting galleries fires the imagination.

Old and new fashion
for the floor
Rag-rugs are unique handicrafts.
Worn-out leftover textiles give the rugs
their characteristic pattern. The art of
weaving has been passed down the generations from mother to daughter, and
today a genuine rag-rug is quite rare.
At Svenska Trasmattor in the small,
idyllic Berg north of Växjö, the tradition
lives on. Here, you can buy ‘vintage’
rugs woven in the 20th-century as
well as newly woven rugs.

Kyrkö Mosse’s rust-red beauties
An unusual monument to the civilisation
of our times. The car cemetery in Kyrkö
Mosse outside Ryd is a reverent landscape – silent and still – a resting place
for faded metal beauties. Rusty shells of
old prides, half buried in thick greenery.
A journey of nostalgia that has achieved
cult status!

in summer 2012. Eksjö Tattoo is back!
On 8-11August.
Roundpole fences, red-painted houses
and small arable patches ploughed,

Many have been taken aback when they step through the door of

called the Wooden Cathedral by Vättern.

Culinary experiences
in Småland
Småland’s culinary traditions are well known far outside its
provincial borders. That’s why cheesecake will always be known
as Småland cheesecake and isterband (coarsely ground smoked
sausages) will always be called ‘Småland isterband’.
The recipes are passed down the generations and
prepared with pride by chefs at gourmet restaurants
and small cafés. The raw produce is taken direct from
the forests and lakes – and don’t be surprised if you
find other local specialities on the menu.
The affection for nature’s larder can be seen in
delicious mushroom dishes and, maybe above all,
in the lingonberries. No other province is so strongly
associated with lingonberries as Småland. Here, pots
of cooked and uncooked lingonberry jam are served
with main courses and desserts – kitchen traditions
we call it.
Maybe it’s just that the sour, fresh taste goes so
well with Småland delicacies like moose fillet. This is
Småland’s soul on a plate.

PM & Vä nn er
Restaurant of the Yea
r 2010 based on the
food experience acc
ording to the ‘White
Guide’! PM & Vänn
er in Växjö has been
at the
top of Swedish gastro
nomy for many years.
The menu is based
on Småland’s corner
stones:
‘forest, meadow & lak
e’, and the search is
always on for the be
st raw produce and
wines
typical of their origin
s. Local produce is alw
ays
at the centre!
Vrigstad cheesecake
A unique crispbread shop
Cheesecake has had its given place
at every Småland party for centuries.
Often several cheesecakes, if it is a
bring-your-own party: golden brown top
with a sweet smell of almonds, topped
with cream and jam! What should a real
cheesecake taste like? Well, try Vrigstad’s
cheesecake – just like a home-made one
with a taste of Småland.
Welcome to the 1950s! Fiket i Gränna is
a genuine café with Elvis on the jukebox
and its own chocolate biscotti. But, the
most famous are, of course, the crispbreads: Braheknäcke, Rymmarknäcke and
the square Grännaknäcke – and you can
see the bakers as they work through the
large windows facing the street. How
about that!
Restaurang & Café Timjan
The closeness to nature is striking. Timjan
is beautifully set in the forest outside
Vrigstad. So, the choice of raw produce
in the kitchen and café is natural – with
herbs, vegetables and berries from the
forest and its own garden, and meat
from suppliers who guarantee ‘happy
animals’. The greenhouses and herb
garden offer home-made food as well
as plants and garden products.

Experience,
feel and marvel
The Glass Factory today is Sweden’s only purely experience-based glass museum,
and its art glass collection of more than 30,000 articles is the largest in Sweden.
Discover the interactive exhibition on the Kingdom of Crystal’s origin, evolution
and future. In unique film clips you will meet glass artists and glass workers who
talk about the Kingdom of Crystal, glass and its significance. Travel back in time to
the 1960s, when glass took shape in an entirely new and unexpected way and feel
the fresh winds of change. In the museum’s various thematic displays for children
and adults, you can get acquainted with the Kingdom of Crystal’s most secret
stories. Meet Boda personality Albin with his high hat or glassblower
Ruben and marvelat their captivating tales. Moreover, in the museum’s blowing
room you can design and blow glass of your own together with our skilled
glassblowers.
The museum also displays the very latest in glass art, with glass pieces signed
by Åsa Jungnelius, Helena Kågebrand, Ingalena Klenell and others.
