Parking

Events at Hägnan tend to be well attended and the parking areas in the church village are limited, therefore we recommend as many as possible to take the local bus. There will be a parking fee of 40 SEK at the major parking lots, the fee goes to the association that manages the parking. Keep in mind not to park in unauthorized areas by the side of the road. There are two parking spaces for visitors with disability permits at the parking lot by the end of Gamla Hamngatan. Two more can be found at the parking lot behind Kafé Fägnan, with entry from Rutviksvägen.
