Midsummer celebration in Leksand draws as many as 30,000 participants, making it the biggest in Sweden! The celebrations are held in "Gropen", an ice age kettle hole forming a natural amphitheatre, and feature traditional Swedish folk music, dancing, playing and the erecting of a large maypole.
Leksands kyrka
It is one of the largest rural churches in Sweden, with room for 2300 people. The area has been used as a Christian burial ground since the 11th century, and archaeologists have found traces of a church building on the site dating to the 12th century. The oldest parts of the current church building date back to the 13th century, making it the oldest church in Siljansbygden. It got its current design, with the characteristic onion dome, during the 18th century. The Swedish romantic composer Hugo Alfvén is buried here.
Leksand Resort
A summer park with plenty of child-friendly activities such as water slides, go-carts, laser tag, rope-ways and roller-coasters.
