Östersund is a town which borders one of the larger lakes in Sweden. It is also the location of one of the most northerly rune stones, and has a museum Jamtli, which has both an enclosed exhibition area, but also an outdoor area which contains old Swedish buildings, and which is similar to Skansen in Stockholm. The museum contains some very interesting tapestries. Östersund is one of the main campus sites of Mid-Sweden University College.
