• Not all public areas of Kalmar Castle are available for a visit with a wheelchair, due to the architecture of the building.
• No dogs are allowed inside the castle itself, with the exception of guide dogs, according to the castle rules.
• Because of the castle's historical and sensitive environments, and in order not to hinder evacuation, it is not allowed to bring strollers or baby carriages inside.
• If you require a hearing aid, use a traditional hearing loop in the Green Hall.
• If you drive down in your own car, there is free parking available at a 10 to 15-minute walk, that passes through a church and graveyard.
• Occasional exhibitions are held at the castle. Don't miss these as they are unique and are very informative.
• The prison tour can be a little scary for little children, so you can avoid taking them to that part of the castle.
• This is a great attraction for children. During summertime, there are lots of activities for them, including dressing up as knights, princes/princesses or jesters, sword fighting, performances, crafting, etc. In the end, even get to participate in a theatrical knighting ceremony.
