About Sola i Karlstad

On the tranquil banks of the Klarälven river, right in the vibrant heart of Karlstad, visitors are greeted by a sculpture that has become a beloved symbol of Värmland's hospitality. Herman Reijers' 1985 masterpiece depicts the legendary "Sola i Karlstad" – a woman whose warm smile and inviting posture reflect the genuine hospitality of a bygone era. This bronze figure is more than just a monument; it is a tribute to the Värmland soul, embodying the true welcoming spirit that has endured for generations and still greets those who visit Karlstad today. It is a reminder of the region's rich history and its unchanging charm.
