THE KINGDOM OF CHEESE – A tasty piece of Västerbotten

Within the Kingdom of Cheese interesting places to visit and events are knit together creating an exciting and varied impression. The Kingdom of cheese includes both historical and newly constructed buildings. As a visitor to any of the restaurants in the Kingdom of cheese you can enjoy a menu of Västerbottensost.
