		Gamla Uppsala (Old Uppsala), where there is a Viking burial ground (with grave mounds from the fifth and sixth centuries A.D.) and a church.
		In the end, the church was perhaps more interesting than the burial mounds; it had originally been a cathedral, built in Uppsala (the seat of the kings of the Svea/Swedes) as a replacement for former wooden churches.
		It was very interesting; it is situated in the cellar of the north wing, the only wing which survived the fires of 1697 which burned down the rest of the medieval castle and led to the rebuilding of the whole castle in baroque style over the next 50 years.
