Artwork: Sägnen om Enskälle

Enskällebo mountain on the northern edge of Bredaryd parish is one of the highest viewpoints in the area. In the centre of the mountain is a cave called Jättefärstan, where according to old folklore there lived a giant called Enskälle. He was disturbed by the sound of the church bells and made two unsuccessful attempts to destroy Bredaryd’s church tower by throwing a huge stone at it. The stone remains and you can also visit the giant Enskälle’s cave just below the top of Enskällebo mountain. The two-metre high Bohus granite sculpture in Bredaryd square is a reminder of this legend. Purchased by the Municipality of Värnamo in 1984.
