World Heritage: Southern Öland Landscape II

The "Agricultural Landscape of Southern Öland" is a Unesco World Heritage. The area is dominated by a vast limestone plateau. Human beings have lived there for some five thousand years and adapted their way of life to the physical constraints of the island. As a consequence, the landscape is unique, with abundant evidence of continuous human settlement from prehistoric times to the present day.

Unesco World Heritage, dossier 968.
