Program

THE SUN CANNON CLUB
in Åtvidaberg

is an idealistic non-political association with approximately 500 members. We are committed to the promotion and enrichment of our cultural traditions, especially those which reflect the distinctive character of the area and the development of tourism in Åtvidaberg.

      The Electrical Ship - E/S Vågspelet departs for a guided tour of the lake Bysjön daily at 11:30 between June to September, weather permitting. We make landfall after an hour and take a short and easy hike up to the top of the hill Kanonkullen, where the world’s only functioning sun cannon stands ready in a red brick tower!

 At exactly 1 pm a midday salute is fired.

Anyone can fire with the assistance of an instructor and 
be awarded a diploma as a “Sun Cannon Cannoneer" 

After the salute there is short trip back to the point of departure, with arrival at 1:15 pm 

You may bring your own picnic basket with you.
Catering packages are also available by contacting us one day before your visit.

Whether it is to celebrate birthdays, weddings or to entertain clients, etc., a salute can be arranged and the lucky sun cannon cannoneer will be awarded a diploma.
