Inauguration of Sweden’s largest gingerbread house
Christmas begins in Gävle – and the scent of gingerbread and magic is already in the air!
Information
Welcome to the inauguration of Sweden’s largest gingerbread house 2025.
For the fourth year, the artist Erik Olof Wiklund from Alfta is behind the creation of the spectacular gingerbread house in the museum’s entrance hall.
