Find the film settings Almost all the books by Astrid Lindgren have had some kind of connection to Vimmerby. When some of the stories were turned into films, Vimmerby became the place to go to, to find the true feeling.
Where stories come to life Villekulla Cottage is real. Noisy Village, Matt’s Fort and most of the other places from Astrid Lindgren’s stories also exist. They are collected in one and the same place: in Astrid Lindgren’s World in Vimmerby.
The place where it all started Astrid Anna Emilia was born on 14 November 1907 here on the farm Näs. Astrid was the second of four siblings. It was her and her siblings who, together with the cowherd’s children and the children from the vicarage next door, were the real children of Noisy Village. Today you are welcome to visit the exhibitions, the childhood home and the gardens of Astrid Lindgrens Näs.
