One of the world's largest sundials is located right in the centre of Pajala. With a diameter of 38.33 m., the sundial has a rustic tribal look and there is a park around it. Come here to get a sense of how time was measured by our ancestors in the olden days.

In the late 1800s, a passionate collector Fritz Mayer van den Bergh amassed an amazing art collection. He purchased paintings by Peter Brueghel for a pittance, and managed to beat major museums purchasing stunning medieval sculptures. Mayer van den Bergh had an eye for the best quality in almost every genre. After his death, his mother finally managed to make her son’s dream come true: she built a museum, which showcased his collection. Today, the museum stands largely uncharged: it is still a museum of one man... and his mother. Highly recommended in the Great smaller museums of Europe.

Waller Mill Park is a quiet spot just outside Williamsburg, built around a 360-acre lake. It’s a great place for fishing, kayaking, canoeing, or just renting a boat and getting out on the water. There are also hiking trails, picnic areas, and a dog park, making it a solid choice for a relaxing outdoor break.

As you explore the nooks and crannies of the Old Town, it is worth taking a moment to step into the peaceful interior of this Gothic church. The building was completed at the start of the 17th century for the order of the Poor Clares. The Hejnał, a trumpet hymn to the Virgin Mary, is played from the old church tower at 12pm, 3pm and 6pm.
