On the outskirts of Malmö lies a rural oasis that emanates a sense of peace and harmony. Katrinetorp, an early 19th-century "landeri" (country estate), was originally designed as a summer residence and a venue for grand receptions. Today, the city of Malmö runs the place, and they are constantly working on recreating its former glory. Markets, music entertainment, events, and exhibitions are held here annually. It recently opened its new exhibition hall "The Stables,” which also has a high-end gift shop. Katrinetorp lies 10 minutes from the city centre of Malmö, which makes the big city no more than a stone’s throw away from this idyllic scenery.
