Vimmerby’s Astrid Lindgren When Astrid Anna Emilia Ericsson was born on 14 November 1907 on the farm Näs outside Vimmerby who would have thought what she would become. Even if there were signs. She was a lively girl, physically and intellectually. She was quick on her legs and in her thoughts, with an agile body and imagination. Adventurous and playful. A talented storyteller already as a child.
Amongst slides, games and motocross bikes For many years, Magnus Frodig and Maria Carlsson’s home was filled with motorcycles and different kinds of projects. Enthusiasts from all over Europe came to the couple’s home to see the big collection of unique vehicles. With a new family, it was a lot to have at home, and the solution was to move to new premises, a solution that became the start of something much bigger.
