Candles at Skogskyrkogården

Take the green line south for All Saints' evening at the Woodland Cemetery, when around 70,000 people come to light candles: Skogskapellet and Uppståndelsekapellet are open 11:00–19:00 and the Visitors center until 20:00. The City asks you to get off at Sandsborg and walk through, and to bring a torch.
