Lanthöjden Obelisk – Highest Point of the Göta Canal

Highlight • Monument

The Obelisk of Lanthöjden, located on the northern shore of Lake Roxen near Linköping, is a quiet yet symbolic landmark tied to the history of the Göta Canal. Erected in 1795, long before the canal itself was constructed, it was meant to mark the exact midpoint of the planned waterway. The project’s visionary, Count Baltzar von Platen, commissioned the monument as a statement of intent and ambition, celebrating Sweden’s bold plan to connect east and west through an inland passage. Today, surrounded by forest and overlooking the lake, the obelisk stands as both a historical marker and a hidden gem, reminding visitors of the ingenuity and determination that shaped one of the country’s greatest engineering feats.

Gota Canal Island 🏝️

Highlight • Structure

The Gothenburg Canal was subsequently "straightened" here. A bridge leads to the island, where you'll find a memorial obelisk and information panels (also in German) explaining why this was done.
