Säterstampen in english

Säterstampen – experience life like it was in the beginning of the 20th century

will take place August 10th.

The Historic Week in Säter’s municipality promotes our great cultural and natural environments; revives our cultural heritage with song, music, theater and handicraft; and provides opportunities for walking tours and exciting exhibitions. We create venues that convey our common history here in Säter, in an easily accessible fashion. The organisers are Kulturföreningen Säterstampen, Säters hembygdsförening and Säters kommun. Come see our charming town, where history can be experienced on every street corner!

Säterstampen

Through historical imagination that takes us back a hundred years in time, we get to take a unique walk through our town’s courtyards and streets, now filled with people, horses and carriages, song, music and plays. In addition, merchants from near and far offer their goods, food and handicrafts. There is something here for everyone, whether we are hungry or eager to craft something. Furthermore, Säterstampen opens up the gates to our lovely old wooden town - one of the most well preserved wooden towns in the whole of Sweden - with its magnificent, lush, and wellkept inner courtyards.
